Default Got Cowon D2.... this is it.

Finally, the player at least sound better than rockboxed ipod and smaller, lighter than ipod.

I got this today and am very satisified with this player. Long battery life, very nice screen, features, all codec supports, expansion slot, and a handy English dictionary, very nice player indeed.

I think the sound is a bit better than my 5G rockboxed ipod. The only problem is the disk space, but since I can expand it, I see no problem with it (8 gig SD card coming as well) I just want to say that you can expect better sound from D2 than other similar players like ipod.

i think Newegg has the best price.


Glad you like your D2. It's a really great piece of hardware, and the firmware will only make it better. Still waiting for the playlists to work though.

Nice buy! Cowon always make great products.

My X5 is getting old and the temptation to get this is pretty high, but the storage capacity is so small... I'm still waiting for an X5 successor.

I'm loving my D2 all the way, possibly the best player this far...
