It Does Everything But Make Toast
The Vivitar Portable Entertainment Center (click above for link) claims to do almost everything. It's billed as the ultimate convergence device performing 6 multimedia recoder/player functions (hell, I can only perform one function at a time, and I've been told not very well at that).
This device claims to be a video camera, digital stills camera, voice recorder, digital photo frame, MP3 player AND TV/video recorder. It comes with a docking station, connects to both PC's and Macs has a 3.6" screen, long lasting battery (does anyone ever claim that their battery stinks), and will connect to almost any video source including cable tv. Available across the "pond" for about 300 pounds (note to self - learn symbols for foreign currency).
My experience with convergence devices is that while they tend to perform a lot of functions, they usually fail to perform any single function particularly well. But this device does have a real "cool" factor to it.
