5hrs video? Damn, I confused it w/the S9 (8hrs). The video life SUX also!!!

EDIT: The O2 battery life IS 8hrs!!!

 

[Jessipoo]

well I'm not sure I can't remember the specs by heart, the S9 does have 8 hours though, maybe the O2 does too actually, shoot, can't remember... which are you more inclined to get? the S9 when it releases the 32GB (if you can wait that long

)

The S9 is tempting me damn it!!!!

 

[Ingen]

Now neither is overly tempting to me. One lacks SD expandability and the other has less than impressive battery life for audio playback. Meh. Very depressing. I wonder if there'll be a D3 released..

Sorry for being so negative, just rather disappointed atm. Why is life so cruel

Same here.

The O2 will be more likely to have a real line out, but with that battery life I'm going to be slow to jump on it.

It's also a shame that a 32gb S9 won't be for a while. 16 just isn't enough for a pmp.

 

[Clincher09]

How much is the s9 going to cost?

 

[tds101]

The O2's battery life will be less when you add in the fact that most will be using an sd card for extra files. Considering it's abysmal life now - will it really be worth it?

I thought the lack of no SD slot was a deal breaker for you.

 

[Alcibiades]

I was really hoping for a super high capacity FLAC player but I think 32GB might be adequate.

I don't know - it's growing on me - like foot fungus!!!! Sorry for the inconsistencies, but it's like a Touch!!!! A Touch w/great SQ - LOL - minus all the extras!!! W/extras of it's OWN!!!

lol I very much agree!!

I think the 16gig will be enough for me.

I managed with a 4gig player for a couple of years, it was getting annoying though sometimes running out of space and having to choose what to delete but I would probably need only 10-12 gigs of music anyways, the rest could be some movies and shows

 

[tomwom]

Well, I'm veerryy tempted also. If the FM tuner is better than the D2 I'm on-board!
