Samsung's Yepp T9 hits Korea

Alright, nothing to see here. Samsung is just parading their sexy, Adobe Flash-capable, 1.8-inch screened, 30 hour lastin' and video-playin' Yepp T9 all across Asia with nary a thought for us lowly North Americans. Now they've hit their very own South Korea with the player, and we've got our first sight of pricing: 199,000 won, 239,000 won, and 299,000 won in Korea (for the 1, 2 and 4GB versions respectively), and supposed $180, $220, and $280 US pricetags for whenever it drops here. We're taking those latter prices with a grain of salt, since they're a fair bit off the direct conversion of won to dollar, and the player hasn't actually been announced for the States as far as we know, but we suppose it's better than nothing. So, anyone feeling that purple?

with the 2GB nano priced at $150, i hope these prices are off... $30 more for half the storage or $70 more for the same storage... i think most people will overlook the video and flash capabilities, and the battery life (since it is only 6 hours more than the nano now)... therefore people will only look at the style, and i dont think the logic is to pay for every millimeter that they put ON the player, its usually the other way around

and no im not feeling the yahoo! purple

What's not to love about the purple?

I assume the prices are off, but Samsung I love Samsung overall. Not liking the design here much though.

i'm not a fan of the purple

It looks pretty good, I actually like the purple.

Speaking of Yahoo purple, I was just thinking of how cool it would be if they bundled this with a year's membership to Yahoo Music Unlimited like Napster did. Assuming it came stateside anyway.

Yepp, it's still ugly (IMO).

ARe we sure this thing is (Adobe) Flash capable? I couldn't find any info to support this supposed feature. That would be a sure sale from me...
