"Dimensions of the E5: 37.7mm x 44.1mm x 12.2mm!"

Cool!

That's a good shape and size, especially for something like the D2. I'm quite pleased

Hi Guys,

I actually asked James at FiiO if he could send me some sneak preview prototype pics, but I guess they want to keep it a secret now and don't want to release photos just yet.

Well it's 1st October today, so not much longer to wait for the E5!

Steve

Thanks so much,


I just ordered an E3, but from what I've read it seems like it's not a total loss of 10 bucks, I think I can do 16 for E5, thanks again

Hmm, I'm not sure about the new "fatty" shape. The current E3 is a much nicer form factor.
