Samsung has already put DivX on its televisions and now Samsung’s just introduced its R1, a personal media player that can play DivX video.  The screen is a bit on the small side at 2.6-inches, so it probably is not the best for longer watching experiences.  The R1 comes in two capacities, 8 or 16GB.  From first hand knowledge, DivX video packs great quality into small file sizes, so you ought to be able to pack more videos into those R1s than if you used other codecs.  The device is already available in Europe and Russia.
