I miss doing this after I switched to iMod.

Anyhow, I voted for B but C is pretty much cool as well. And I hope we get other colors besides the one in the choices? An alternate color or something..

Ah, what is this, artistic midlife crisis in need of reassurance? 

I'll throw in another vote for C without white border. I would have said D but that "x3" is really out of place, not to mention the wave thing at the recharge LED is a little odd.

Voted for A, C is also fine with or without white frame.

I liked D, but I don't like the X3 on the side.  That said, C looks great.

I went with D, I prefer the seamless experience and not a fan of borders. Best of luck with this James and look forward to reviewing this :)

voted D

I prefer D,.

waiting for real product launch...

Again C without the border.

C without border!

Something like this would be fine. :-)

And please add an cover like the one for E7.

A little less noise than E7 will be also very nice.

That's enough.

I'm very curious!

Just my 2 cent's worth. All of them look great, just consider removing the 2 slanted grooves around the + and -, forward and back buttons. Leave the 6 round buttons clean and simple

Less is more when it comes to design.. imho.

I think FiiO wanted those grooves there so that users can feel the buttons without taking it out of the pocket. The grooves lets you know whether you are touching the skip buttons or the volume buttons.

Maybe a thinner groove machined between the buttons? Would be harder to feel than the current design though.

B looks too good!

So what is the color on 'B'?  Is it a grey plastic or a brushed black finish like the E7/E9?  I can't tell.  If people are that against the border around the screen of 'C' balancing out the player I would certainly prefer 'B' if that color difference were brushed black aluminum rather than plastic.  I should have asked before voting.  'A' and 'D' have the screen floating out there like a small island in the ocean.
