I had the P2000. Nice screen, but slow and sucked batteries. Also, 
it's extremely hard to exchange hard drives for larger ones.

I now use something called the 'Nexto CF' which is extremely fas for 
dowloading cards to the hard drive (up to 1Gb per minute, depending 
on the card), can be used with any 2-1/2" ATA drive, allows 
downloading 100Gb per battery charge and costs all in 1/3 what the 
Epson does. No, it doesn't have the nice colour screen, but that 
turned out to be almost useless anyway.
