There's also a video at the bottom of the article but it takes a really long time to buffer/download. I haven't seen it yet.
This is so awesome... Can't wait until it comes to the USA.
MMM notice the back of the q5 says 30GB? WTF
we were lead to believe 40gb and 60gb models?

Maybe that was a pre-production model?
I'm also disappointed that such an expensive unit doesn't even come with even a cheap sleeve or carry case to protect it when travelling :-(

looks like from what I saw on the cowon site the device is UMS(says MacOS and Linux Support) which is rare for a winCE device.

Here is the same pix that we have seen BUT at the bottom, there is a video (http://clien.career.co.kr/zboard/view.php?id=use&page=1&sn1=&divpage=2&sn=off&ss=on&sc=on&select_arrange=headnum&desc=asc&no=6910). It is about 8:54 long. The video downloads really slow and I cannot get it to run at a viewable speed. Anybody have better luck?

You could use a flash download plugin for firefox to watch it smoothly.

It seems like all Korean websites are really slooooow - do they have a problem with Broadband in that country?
hay Apocalypse, nice pics. Welcome to the site, we all hope to see more images of the Q5 from you. I would love to see more pics of the interface, o0o cant wait to get my hands on one.

Agreed. Also, how about some video(s)? Anything would hold me over until I can wrap my hands around one of these.
P.S There is a pictures sticky already, couldn't these have gone in there?

Really, thanks we are so desperate to see it action.

One thing that I did notice, which I don't really understand is that there is a Mouse Arrow controlling, so is this actually a video of the Q5 or just an emulated version of the GUI on a PC?

I couldn't wait any longer so I downloaded it myself. Took me 45minutes to download on a 20megabit connection... ahh the slow old days...
Here's the link (I like dailymotion better than youtube): http://www.dailymotion.com/omjeremy/video/3524717
Re: the cursor, I think he must've been using a usb mouse rather than an emulator because DMB was working in the video.
thanks for the video reup. Was it me or where some parts of the GUI slightly lagging in response to loading/clicking? or is this the fault of the recorded video.
Id like to know what sound chip they used in this device, anyone know?

It was lagging but not enough to bother me, I want the q5 asap
Loved the keyboard in what looked like a search mode, this device looks like so much fun.
Thanks Omjeremy, nice job!
wow, D2 for on the go ... Q5 for everything else
Some more images i found @ http://regulus.tistory.com/
Sample:
http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/5852/downloadkj9.jpg
I also found a different video lasting 3 minutes, although it loads a little quicker than the other video we have already seen.

I hope we can turn off that nasty windows clicking sound whenever the user presses a button on the screen.
edit: i found more pictures @ http://today.shinjinho.com/2460593
^ still no sign of a docking station :(

Cheers, the video doesn't load for me at all. But the pictures are so sexy!
^
excellent, although im getting a "encoding error" for the 'van' video.
Thank you very much, the top link says something along the lines of a problem with encoding the second video is very nice, but as someone said, not sure about the clicking sound when selecting things, but that should have an option to turn on or off, so no worries.
The third one is a cool addition, something we've not seen yet, but not overly interesting. But does look like it might be part of a set, with lots of different videos, so if you find the rest of a set, please please show us :)
Omjeremy, thanks again mate, its much apppreciated.
The clicking doesnt worry me its very windows'ish I guess. Maybe it will get annoying after a while.
Lets wait to see now re Us/Eu version

OK fixed the links and added even more videos!
http://www.dailymotion.com/omjeremy/video/3552915 (Video referenced above - shows great overview of the Q5)
http://youtube.com/watch?v=o0dGbVMhr9g (Cowon Van - had to reupload onto YouTube... DailyMotion didn't work. Shows various usage including GPS. GPS is built in! Unsure if this feature will be in the America/Europe version.)
http://www.dailymotion.com/omjeremy/video/3552945 (Q5 Startup and Shutdown with some interface activity)
http://www.dailymotion.com/omjeremy/video/3557080 (Part 2 of Q5 Startup and Shutdown - Shows WiFi/browser usage!)
http://www.dailymotion.com/omjeremy/video/3557172 (Yet another video... shows playback. Presumably from PMP Inside)
Nope the Van 1, still won't work for me :(
Edit: Thanks for the reupload, it definitely does make it seem that GPS is built in, I want one :'(
^ v true. why not film menus and such, options and settings. call me boring but these are as important to me; to get an idea of what is available.
i guess people like filming movies playing. i still cant get over that lil pause when one skips through a vid. does this happen with the A2?
Yeah it does a little bit, gotta catch up. The thing that worried me most was the loading time for photos on the Q5, in one of the videos, it shows someone on the photos menu and it takes longer than a film to display.
Two words boys FIRMWARE UPDATE
^ i hope so. taking a look at another video the web brownsing feature is laggy. it would do my head in.
ive noticed all the videos shown on the Q5 fit perfectly on the screen, is this because the Q5 auto fits the video? i hope there is a option for it to keep the origional aspect ratio of a video even if there are black bars on either sides of the screen.
omjeremy

Yeah, everything in Windows CE is laggy! Try out the emulator and see. Even on a fast modern computer nothing is really smooth. It's just the software. Perhaps Version 6.0 would be better.
There is an option for changing the aspect ratio. I'm pretty sure that's what's going on in this video: http://www.dailymotion.com/omjeremy/video/3524717

Yeah that's what I thought you see him scrolling through the aspect ratio's
^ ah very nice indeedy. Id like to check out the device in store b4 i purchase, just to get a feel of the loading times etc; shame as its unlikely id get to see the Q5 in a store within the UK.
Lets get a cowon shop up and running in london. [thumbsup]
Yay! :D Can I have a job in your Cowon shop addz :P its only bout hour and a half away on the train from me :P
Nope the Van 1, still won't work for me :(
Edit: Thanks for the reupload, it definitely does make it seem that GPS is built in, I want one :'(
I think the SOFTWARE is built in. The GPS is part of the GPS dock in the vehicle. Look at the cowon site.
Hess, if only i had the funds and the time. But you never know. Someday maybe.
Here are a few more pics: (ive made em thumbnails as the origionals are quite large) nothing special here though.

OP @ http://board.cowon.com/zeroboard/zboard.php?id=C50&no=10652&bmenu=C&category=#
Surely you dont need that GPS dock for the GPS to work on the Q5. I would have thought the dock is just to hold the Q5 in, as well as charge it using the car as well as connecting to output speakers/easy to reach buttons etc.??? As for the International builds (uk/us etc) i dont think they will inc GPS function nor the encyclopedia.

I think Advanced mp3 players will have them in store once they are available as they have carried all other Cowon and were one of the first to have the d2.

Nice PMP!!! I'm so into getting one as well; )
but i wonder will the US version has Wifi Built-in? since there's no need for DMB in the US, wonder if Cowon will make a US/ Eur version which replace the DMB receiver module w/ the 802.11b/G built-in? there'll be a must-buy if this modification applies : )
