Cowon A2 series

Cowon A2 (20GB) Reviewed on 02/01/2006

The Bottom Line: The Cowon A2 is a sleek portable video player with a bright, wide-screen color LCD, as well as full multimedia recording and playback capabilities, but it's not the most efficient device. Plus, it's in desperate need of Windows Media DRM 10 (Janus) compatibility.

Specs: Digital AV recorder, 5.2 in x 0.9 in x 3.1 in, TFT 4 in - Color, ASF, MP3, WAV, WMA, AC-3, Ogg Vorbis, AVI, WMV, XviD, DivX 4.0, DivX 5.0, DivX 3.11, MPEG-4 SP, 10.5 oz
