Manufacturer, GameTEX, has created a device that allows you to record movies and music from their website to a flash card which can then be viewed or heard on your GBA.
The file formats that are going to be used include AVI, WMV, MPEG, MP3, MIDI and others. In low quality, the flash card can hold upto 120 minutes, but in high quality it can store upto 30 minutres. You can actually have both music and movie files on the same compact flash card.
To play, rewind, forward, etc ... you will be using the GBA buttons. It seems that the GBA will connect with the PC (most probably by USB wire) and require computers to have the OS Windows XP,2000, or ME.

No mention has been made thus far of its release in North America, but the manufacturer does seem interested in bringing it here.
