"We have a great Thingy for today!"

"What is it?"

"It's the ADS InstantVideo To-Go!"

"...OK, what is it?"

"This little stick dramatically accelerates encoding of h.264 video on your PC."

"...what is that?"

"Well, if you own an iPhone, a Sony PSP, or other mobile gadgets with h.264 support and you want to put your own videos into them, they have to be in h.264 format.  Even some TV set-top boxes and DVD players support it, these days.  But converting them can take a really long time!"

"Why?"

"It's really complicated, apparently.  To get crisp, high-quality video into a format that doesn't take up enormous amounts of storage, you have to do a LOT of math-y stuff to it first... even a fast computer can take quite awhile."

 

 

"So?"

"So this Thingy has a specialized silicon-chip-doohicky in it that knows a few shortcuts in the 'ol h.264 game - accelerates the whole process by up to a factor of 5!"

"....so?"

"SO, you can encode your movies and TV shows in minutes rather than hours, and not have your computer bogged down all day!  It's particularly good if you have a show you record every day to watch while out'n'about - who wants to spend more time CONVERTING than you do to record - or watch! - the show?"

"Well, I don't know..."

"Did I mention it comes with a free carry bag?"

"SOLD!!"

"You'd better grab yours now, they won't be here tomorrow..."
