Cheap media player to play h264/MP4 & other media files?

So is that basically a mini-PC? £72 looks a bit steep especially since I only want to play movies and that's it, I used my PC for everything else as I couldn't imagine browsing the internet on a telly due to the upscaling/distortion of text.

I had the Micro 2, and it played everything. The remote was a bit rubbish, but for around £30, did the job perfectly

I recommended a Micro 2 to a work colleague a while back and he loves it.
Just this week I picked up a Micro 3 along with a 2.5" 500Gb USB powered HDD for mother so I don't have to keep on transcoding to DVD/AVCHD.

Great piece of kit and the remote isn't as bad as people make out, they've gone back to the classic rubber button style remote rather than the credit card thin plastic bubble membrane style one in the Micro 2 and it works fine.

Buchtis: If you are after a simple media player without bells, whistles and all the jiggery pokery you get these days then the Micro 3 might be what you need.
