» Cowon O2
Aug 25, 2008 - 5:18 AM - by Dominic
Next up in our Cowon fest is the complete PMP, the O2. This seems to be an A3 replacement but when it comes to Cowon one can never be certain of that. The O2 reminds me an awful terrible lot of iriver's LPlayer and P10, which I suppose isn't a bad thing.


Features:
  • 4.3" Touchscreen
  • SD Card Slot
  • 8-32gb Flash Memory
  • Built-in Speaker
  • TV Out
  • Mammoth Codec Support (too many to list right now)
  • 10 band Custom Eq
  • Battery: 18hrs Audio / 8hrs Video
  • Dimensions: 119 x 73 x 18mm

Well, the O2 seems to be quite the player, on paper at least. Here's a rundown of it's supported formats:
Video: Divx 3.11/4/5/6, Xvid, Mpeg-4 SP/ASP, WMV 7/8/9, H.264, Mpeg 1, MJepg.
Audio:Mpeg Layer 1/2/3, WMA, AAC, AC3, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, OGG FLAC, Apple Lossless, True Audio, Monkey Audio, MusePack, Eavepack, G.726, PCM.

Woah, lots of codec typing their, gotta love that though. I hope the O2 works as advertised.

» Cowon S9
Aug 25, 2008 - 4:56 AM - by Dominic
Today Cowon have unveiled three new products, the S9 (the X5/D2 successor), the O2 (the A3 successor?) and the L3 (a GPS system). The first image shown below is that of the S9, it will be replacing the D2 but sure does seem to me like an X5 successor too.


Features:
  • Dual Core 500MHz Processor
  • 3.3", 480 x 272 16m colour Amoled Display
  • Capacitive Touchscreen
  • Flash UI
  • TV Out
  • 40 hours audio Battery life
  • Dynamic Dictionary
  • Bluetooth
  • "G-Sensor"
  • BEE, Jet Effects and Customisable EQ

Of Course I'm a big fan of Cowon products, they always have that little extra kick. Honestly cannot wait for the S9, looks like the Archos5 has just fallen down the pecking order.

» Cowon P5 makes its Official debut
Jul 24, 2008 - 11:57 AM - by ssjmichael
It's been nearly two years since we first reported on the Cowon P5. Details were scant back then but we described the player as follows "The P5 has a 5'' screen and is the high-end version of the upcoming Cowon A3. It also has a DMB antennae and runs Windows CE5. It also has navigation integrated and a touch screen. It will have support for HSDPA modems." That was more than likely the Q5 we were describing there, but the P5 shares most of the same attributes:


Features:
  • Capacity: 60 or 80GB*Display: 5.0" touchscreen (800 x 480, 18M colors)
  • Audio: MP3, WMA, Ogg, FLAC, and WAV (plus AC3 support for movies)
  • Video: DivX, Xvid, MPEG4, WMV up to 720 x 480 at 30fps (plus TV-out)
  • DMB Tuner
  • Bluetooth built-in
  • Optional Wi-Fi add-on (USB Dongle)
  • FM tuner and recorder
  • Runs on Windows CE 5.0
  • Battery life: 14 hours for audio, 9 hours for video
  • Dimensions: 138.8 x 88.5 x 20.0 mm

There's so much I love about this new player. From the cutting edge industrial design, to the very user-friendly interface. The Premium P5 is currently available in Korea, and should be arriving in N. America later this year. It looks like Cowon has another great player on their hands, I just hope I can afford to put it in mine.
