Not to impresseive I think. For that price you should be able to (photo) show raw files and EXIF data, (general) get a bigger drive, why not 80 or 100 GB, (general) have it work like an external hard drive a la LaCie and (screen) get a better resolution at about 200 pixels per inch a la Epson P-2000 and also include a memory card reader for the photographer running out of space.
In fact Epson offers exactly all that except of the space (the P-2000 comes with 40 GB only) and for the same price.
Oh well.
