Pretty cool looking. Huge battery, not much life considering the battery size. Definitely looking forward to more info.

I dont understand , can someone give me a use case for this thing?

You need a DAP or computer as a source still, but it has internal memory.

Interesting product

They even created a remote app for iPad and mentioned volume control of WAVE (V1000 is the model number) in the latest version

Never saw anything about Wi-Fi yet, that's why the volume control from an iPad remote app would be really intriguing to me.
 
And then we've gotta find out what we could do with those hardware buttons on the side
 

 
There were some impressions posted in Korean and not exactly sure about what they said

If they are going to put memory in there, why not just make a DAP...

That would cost as much as the upcoming AK500N or even Aurender W20, LOL

 

[CosmicHolyGhost]

A DAP with a mSATA slot will be pretty awesome...

Why a computer is needed since it has internal memory ??  isn'it stand alone unit ?? 

 

 

[Mimouille]

I guess it has no adequate processor to act as a DAP. And not GUI.

any release date

 

[seeteeyou]

They changed the name of V1000 from WAVE to FLOW and shipment should begin on double 11

Right now their online shop should be powered by Amazon.com and they won't ship anything outside US.
 
That's why they informed us to check back in early November for availability in other regions. Of course we could also get that directly from Korea

Will have to agree with the sentiment , because at this point, this is a Hugo with internal memory
