Can you fit the 80GB that the COWON will take on your S9? I know lossless takes up a TON of room and I am all for a bumped up capacity (and if you are not running lossless your S9 it is being wasted....).]]>Jan 17th 2010 9:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/
Me ill stick with my 1-2 punch with the Viliv X70EX (32 GB with 3G) and my Archos Android 500GB PMP.

That is all going to change once the Viliv U5 is released. Viliv U5 is probably the best UMPC I have seen in a long time. ]]>Jan 17th 2010 10:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Jan 17th 2010 7:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/for starters.. you can have your favourite browser, favourite OS, run full flash (i mean not mobile version), download music from where ever you want, play music using your fav player, connect to which ever bluetooth device you like ( shift can pair with my sony xplode player) unlike iphone which is not compatible with some bluetooth stacks. use keyboard you like (when you are not on move, ofcourse)]]>Jan 17th 2010 7:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Jan 17th 2010 7:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Endless support of video format.

It's a UMPC/MID, why are you expecting PMP prices? The 64 gig ipod touch is 400(ish), this device has 80GB and a lot of other benefits. ]]>Jan 17th 2010 9:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Jan 17th 2010 8:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Jan 17th 2010 9:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Jan 17th 2010 9:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Also it only has BT2.0 not 2.1? and not n wireless, just b/g? and a pretty dated atom?

People want N not so much for internet speeds, but for cross network speed, and the better coverage N provides. Or at least that's why I want it.]]>Jan 17th 2010 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/Jan 17th 2010 11:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/
Although wireless N is important for future devices, I cannot think of all that many places that use it now. Any place with free wireless is in G, not N. Maybe you have your household set up with N, however I do not know how often I would use a 4.3 inch screen in my house since I have computers.

On the other hand, this is not the device I would leave my S9 for.]]>Jan 17th 2010 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/17/cowon-w2-specd-priced-and-dated-for-korean-consumers/And it's just weird that it's all so outdated really and introduced as new, it would be OK if it was on current devices, but new stuff should be more up to date surely.

As for internetspeed, yes I have significantly faster internet than 20mbps.
