Last time I checked, AVI, DivX, MP4 and MP3 have been around for the last couple of years. I don't see MP3 going anywhere else in the next 2 to 3 years, and MP4 either.

Fact is, as long as I have either of the 2 video converters (NITVC and N800VC) that I use regularly, I can convert any file (except MKV, which only N800VC can convert to MP4) that I can playback on my PC/Notebook and play it back on the N800, so it is NOT obsolete, i.e. it still plays back the same codecs as when I paid for it.

Point is, if I really wanted the new codecs that could not be played back on the N800, then I would reassess my needs and buy what I need, be it the N9xx or a dedicated portable media player.
