As I'm in the UK the price of these are £2200. I think that's a crazy amount to pay for one. I've been looking on line and the cheapest I can get it imported is £1650 from this site

I have dealt with these guys on Cowon purchases, they are very nice and reliable. I think they can be quite accomodating regarding value of the package.

  It looks like the AK240 do NOT allow to browse through album arts like iTune or (bellow) Calyx ?  "
 
   
 
This is really disappointing.  Now they have the screen's real estate for doing this screen bellow instead !  ( This is a fake made by me)
 

 
 
So please M. Iriver, do something about this...

Surely at this price you should get a free tablet to view the artwork on!

Yeah, I just saw alot of Terrible reviews in English and the rest is in "french?"
And for 2000 dollars that's alot to risk, however would it be possible to ask them to ship it as a gift with a value below 40usd?

 
Got email back from them.

Finally, it's here!

Visually, it's stunningly beautiful and no images I've seen can do justice to this amazing DAP. Secondly it's surprisingly light and fits very well in my Palm.

Since I have quite a lot of work to do tonight, I just charge the unit and resist the urge to turn it on.

This weekend, I hope I will have a chance to try it out and shoot some photographs.

Cheers!
