it looks nice and supports a lot of formats. does it play video tho or store images? it seems like it does.

but for that much and it's only 4G, not so sure. more on the expensive side.

I hope they can keep the price down in the USA. It uses a hard drive so that may be a deal breaker for me. Currently using a Nano and waiting for a larger capacity version of it. I love iAudio though. Great sounding products.

played with the iAudio 6 at CES. it's good.

Cowon will be offering it with larger hard drive capacities as they become available from Toshiba... but no ETA.


edit: by the way, we picked up a few of these at CeBIT so look for a review at dapreview.net in a few weeks.

So there'll be higher capacity iAudio 6s that are the same size as the 4 gb version?

Yeah I know it is. Notice how I stated hard drive as in it has moving parts. The Nano is flash based, more durable IMO. That drive is the new .85" Toshiba drive.
