that prizefight video was so biased...
she didn't mention anything about 30 fps for video,
16 million pixel resolution, and battery hour of D2

Not to mention that iRiver's support is horrendous

This girl has no idea whats going on...she probably took 2 minutes on the players...she was probably told what to say
Her review of the Cowon A2 vs. archos 604 was a joke to.[laugh]

Holy crap...that girl was annoying to listen to...I had to stop halfway through the video...

Anyway, I think the D2 is the most sexy PMP on the market atm.

I think she fell in love with the "cute girly" CLIX name before she even did the review.[laugh]

cnet reviews seem pretty crappy in general to me

i don't think the clix is bad but... yeah. inaccurate review.

That clix looks like a toy compared to the D2..the D2 looks like a real piece of equipment...

Cowon should be hiring some great marketing genius to promote their good players. Sure the D2 is awesome, but it lacks advertising punch!

Maybe more of these CNET battles would make Cowon take their marketing seriously.

And maybe we could have them bundle more of their accessories with the player. Couldn't hurt.

They won't be hurting iPod's sales anytime soon, but they could very well take down iRiver with ease if they used a little elbow grease :)

I agree....I don't know Cowon just seems to have there head in the sand sometimes...I don't know if it's a communication thing between Korea and the US...Maybe they need some more American or English people in the business, or they just don't care...or the head guy is just out for cash....all's I know they have a great product. I just wish they'd get on the ball more.

but she`s kinda cute thoug.... [blush]
Yeeze

Ok I think, she was a CLIX user, or for some reason, she liked the clix more....
BUT that was obviously a review favoring the CLIX and not a comparison!!

I have to say as Borat, the retard is loose! Wtf was up with that girl? Oh well, i'm used to a show here in norway called "tv2 helps you", they have worse tests than this... they actually use kids to test stuff, i'm not kidding. The ipod won the mp3 test, and that says it all

She said she couldn't find the volume display on the D2. Anyone else catch that part? It's in the top right. I truly believe this is the best player I've ever owned.

Just send her an email and let her know that she's cute but that's no excuse. [laugh]
I hope she comes here and clarifies all of the contradictions from that "review".
