"watch out Apple, there are others out there!"
Pros: Excellent Sound Quality, Video, Multiple sound formats, OLED screen, FM radio, voice recorder
Cons: .75 inches in thickness
Summary: Sound Quality - 10 out of 10. Slap some in-ear phones on and your ready to go. I've owned two ipods in the past and iaudio puts apple to shame in the sound department. BBE sound, user adjustable EQ, 3D sound, ect.
Build Quality - solid. Screen does not scratch, but is easily smeared. Back is sturdy.
Display - Nothing like OLED. Very vibrant and clear.
Formats - OGG, FLAC, MP3, ect
Video - Haven't tried any video yet.
Controls - "Swing Touch" is good, but you need to get used to it. Top controls are very solid and intuitive.
FM Radio - cool screen layout, good sound, it is what it is.
Line out Voice Recorder - records in WMA. Decent sound.
Battery Life - Excellent
File Management - Drag and Drop. no crapTunes.
Price - You get what you pay for.
Overall - I've had this player for 2 months. Again for me it's all about the sound. Battery life is as advertised. I wish Cowon had a few more $$ to market their products. I do wish they would have used flash memory to make it a bit thinner.
