Does anyone make a portable HDD player that is at least 80 gigs in size, has an EQ and isn't an iPod?

Given their ability to drive higher impedance headphones and compatibility with so many formats, it is surprising so many audiophiles don't know about cowon. edit- here's an address:[ Welcome to cowonglobal.com ] |
