Im holding out for the 32gb to be released (should be around Feb/ March) and to see what Sony bring to the table at CES. I own a NWZ A818 at the mo and love the sound quality. Exactly the reason I would buy the Sony or Cowon next time. Most of their lives are spent in pockets so Im not too bothered how bling the GUI is. I just want to know that the sound is good. Video quality is an added bonus.
Good luck with that $360 mp3 purchase
Exactly why I wouldn't buy a touchscreen only device, however the buttons on this in conjunction make it superior to the iTouch for navigation imo. Don't have to take it out of my pocket to change tracks and the hold switch can be set to only hold the touchscreen if you want, so it's perfect for in pocket use.
Even still, the UI isn't as bad as this review makes out and coupled with the fact that there's already custom UIs being released for it (I personally have a custom main menu screen on mine making full use of the screen space) and Cowon seemingly committed to firmware upgrades, I don't see the UI being a "problem" for too much longer.
