I just saw this video and my interest in D3 has dropped significantly.......
 
Well I do believe Cowon will get us better firmware than this but this is something I didn't expect.
 
 
Edit: people are reporting that the problem is with the stock player app, not the device itself. After they swapped home screen app and their music app things are as smooth as it can be.

So, any news on the digital out?

Nope, not yet(to tell the truth I doubt I'll ever find something that worth posting here in the Korean forums). People there just don't care about those things... makes me wonder why.

Thanks for the video. I'm definitely getting it now. I don't care if it's sluggish.

And here's a video of one:
 

 
Got to say that I'm also disappointed that there is as much lag as there is. Hopefully Cowon gets out a firmware to fix it up before the worldwide release. The good thing about Android is that you can do a few things to help things along, such as changing the home screen and what not.

with firmware update, can the slowness of it be solved, at least as fast a touch?

 

[violinvirtuoso]

^ It probably can, but I doubt that Cowon will ever perfect the D3 that much.

 

[TheDreamthinker]

It's strange.....
 
It is, in general, not possible for firms (electronics, games, etc.) to find their mistakes
and improve them, without eliminating the amenities of the/it's predecessor(s).

If theres a workaround like the one above I might end up getting this after all. Awesome.

^ the cowon page says "Micro SD 카드 슬롯" so, yes. I think it can support up to 32gb.

Why is everybody suddenly jumping on the micro SD bandwagon? The last time I checked Amazon a couple of weeks ago a 32GB SD card was about $30 cheaper than a 32GB micro SD card.

It has a significantly smaller form factor, and prices drop eventually.

Smaller isn't always necessarily better.Finding a micro SD card after you drop it or your finger slips while inserting it launching it across the room is not fun.

 

[violinvirtuoso]

A microSD card IS better because it is smaller. In any device, the area taken up by the expandable memory bay can't be used for anything else. So when a designer puts a microSD card slot instead of an SD card slot, they have more room to put in other stuff (like a bigger battery, better processer, etc.).

As long as u don't have 2 left hands, why not take microSD?

I hadn't thought of those points. I still don't really like those itty bitty things but it looks like that's the way manufacturers are heading lately. Even the Samsung Galaxy Tab uses micro SD so I guess those things are here to stay...
