Can anyone give a plausible explanation of how the SD card, whose digital output is exactly the same regardless of manufacturer, could possibly affect the final analog signal?

I'm still wondering about the SQ...   For folks that have a ZX2 in hand already, would you describe the sound signature as blue/black, or white/gold?

        A major reason is probably that if they included earphones, they'd have to be entry level.  The ZX2 will then not sound its best.  A large number of people WILL judge it based on that (maybe assuming that the earphones were "well matched" for the ZX2), and end up...

All this talk of price and microsd, but I can't be the only one wondering: how does it sound??   Can all you owners post your impressions so far?  And of course, comparisons to your own DMPs.  Thanks! :-)
