(ARA) – As technology allows electronic devices to get smaller and smaller, it's becoming possible to have access to music and now, even video, no matter where you are.

The PocketDISH from DISH Network is a single device that replaces your MP3 player, photo storage equipment and even portable DVD player. By connecting the PocketDISH to a DISH Network digital video recorder (DVR), users can load and watch hours of their favorite television or movies.

Users can also create portable music libraries, store thousands of photos and play games, eliminating the need for multiple devices. Imagine being able to take your favorite sit-coms, reality shows or last night’s game with you anywhere, and watch them anytime.

PocketDISH comes in three models with a 2-inch, 4-inch or 7-inch screen. One of the most advanced portable media devices on the market, PocketDISH uses USB 2.0 technology for ultra-fast transfer speeds from select DISH Network DVRs. A full-length movie can be sent to the hard drive in less than 10 minutes. Also compatible with other devices such as VCRs, camcorders, DVRs or PCs, the 4-inch and 7-inch PocketDISH units can record video from other sources.

The PocketDISH with the 7-inch wide-screen LCD display is equipped with a 40-gigabyte hard drive that can store up to 40 hours of DISH Network programming and can even record video from other sources. It can also store up to 20,000 songs or 400,000 photos. The long-life, rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides approximately four hours of video or 12 hours of music.

With a 4-inch LCD screen, the second PocketDISH model offers a 30-gigabyte hard drive for storage of up to 30 hours of DISH Network programming or can record video from another source. In addition to holding up to 15,000 MP3, WMA and WAV music files, the AV500E can store up to 300,000 photos.

The most compact model features a 2.2-inch LCD screen. With a 20-gigabyte hard drive for storage of up to 20 hours of DISH Network programming or 10,000 songs, the player can also store up to 200,000 photos.

PocketDISH accommodates the most go-go schedules, allowing you to keep up with the movies, memories and music that shape your life. No longer do you need a bag to lug all your technology. All you need is a Pocket. To learn more, visit www.pocketdish.com or to learn more about DISH Network, call (800) 333-DISH (3474).
