I'm more interested in where you are getting full HD 1080P files to play from?

Watch MP4, WMV, and Avi videos directly on your device with comprehensive codec support. "

The current codecs out of the box are picky, but I can get more to play than not from these types:
1. avi
2. divx
3. mp4
4. wmv
5. mpeg
That alone has four more than Android or Apples can play
The two things I would like to see released to the noob level repository are a codec pack and an EQ. Both are coming, just a question of "when".
Could somebody answer the "when" part?

Seriously, it states *.avi right there. He was not misled. Out of the box, he did not get what he thought based on trying to inform himself from the Maemo website.
It's not like it came from nowhere. It's an expectation that came from the site itself. Now... it's one that surprises me, but with Mplayer and VLC both in either testing or extras-testing, it'll be a very short time that this is not a spot where people will have grievances.
kill me now.
