File system?

I'm going to be getting a Scroll soon and was wondering about file systems.

Ideally I would want to put movies on it, some of which I have are larger than 4GB.

My devices are mostly Windows, so with the NTFS filesystem, having large files has never been a problem, but I was wondering if there is a way to overcome this limitation. In short, what file system types are supported?

Would I be able to format a memory card with ext3/4 and expect it to work?

This may well depend on your OS and what model Scroll you are getting.
I have heard that the Extreme supports NTFS straight out of the box, apparently due to the OS being Ice Cream Sandwich (android 4). Apparently you can also use NTFS with the Scroll Excel as well if it has been upgraded/modded to run ICS .

I was aware of that Charlie, I was just checking unanswered post and this was one.
Thought it might help some-one else who might follow this thread with the same question though.
Seems like cantisque has been dissapointed quite a bit even with an Extreme that works.
