As a quick question what are the difference (in terms of features) between the X5 and the A2? I'd like to know if i'm missing out on any of the X5 features if I get the A2.

And does it play DRM Music? and also i've heard about similarly protected video files does it play that too or?

I believe so, but at the moment resellers will be recieving there units until our next shipment, which can take a while. I think supplies are pretty limited so get them while you can.

Just gotta finish a newsletter that will be sent to all cowon forum users etc. There is also going to be a special remote give away for the A2, so look to the newsletter for details. When the newsletters is released it will then be available.

first post here but I've been watching this thing hoping it will be released. I was torn between the A2 or the AV500 but I'm pretty sure I'll pick A2 because of the text thing (i would use this alot for school and reading) and the extreme beauty of the A2 (hats off to the designers).

If I'm not mistaken only the 30gig version is on the site but a 20 gig version should be offered soon as well, right?

When can Canadians expect to be able to buy one? I'm kinda discouraged that cowonamerica.com will not ship to Canada.. I'd have one purchased already.

Where will we be able to buy the A2 if not from cowonamerica.com?

My M3 needs a buddy :(

Thanks.

so i tried ordering an a2 yesterday and today. everytime i got to the last step "place order", i would get an error message saying my billing and shipping addresses didn't match. i would check them... i made sure they were exact... looked fine to me. tried again, and again. tried again today.

i look at my order status and i see 5 "not finalized" orders with 5 distinct order numbers.

checked my bank account... they have the transfers pending for ~$2000. haha. called cowon and said that within 3-5 days the bank would release the funds but not to worry because cowon wouldn't process it.

glad i didn't try a couple more times! :woh:

but seriously if cowon doesn't accept the order... then why do they place holds on the money... that's kinda jacked. putting your hands on my money should be the last step in your online ordering process and should ONLY happen when i get a message saying "CONGRATS ON THE NEW A2"

Did anyone get the free remote with A2 purchase? I did not see the promotion offered from cowon america web site.
Will the A2 come with black or only white?
Thanks.
Please answer my question. I've been waiting for too long to get the A2.

dre
11-07-2005, 18:44
There is no black or white A2. The picture of the A2 shown everywhere is the only model that you can buy.

Heeeere ... I come for you A2!
