does anyone here have the Cowon s9 and the x1000, I havent really seen any real write ups from owners of both units. I have UM3X and am looking to upgrade, I was waiting for this Cowon J3 but there is no real info out there so I might go ahead with the S9. I have heard all about the Sony and am wondering if the 140 dollars cost extra is justified.
Granted, I am coming from a Palm Pre so my bar is set pretty low right now, the Pre sound is very flat and hissy so anything will prob be a step up. I will also be using this on my runs and I do like that the Cowon is much lighter than the Sony and I like the support/updates/ Community GUI that Cowon seems to have behind it.
So basically is the X that much better? I will only be using for music and the occasional video if im on a plane or something, but dont really care for wifi. I was holding out for this J3 cause i thought it might have a faster processor or better amp.
