The Cowon D3 Becomes Reality
 

For some reason, I can't post a new thread in the news section of the forum, so here goes: http://anythingbutipod.com/2010/12/t...comes-reality/

;)

This will get my $$$, that's for sure. The X7 was/is too "iffy", this might be as well. But, I'd still give this a shot - especially w/a nice screen res and all the Cowon SQ enhancements.

D3 convert setting now available in last Jetaudio relies.(8.0.11)

If JetAudio Video Converter supports D3 it might have it's icon and specs the movie to be converted ;)

It sounds like they just want another J3, only bigger. What's the point, that's what I want to know? I got a 32GB J3 when they first came out and I ended up sending it back. I got my second 16GB D2+ the other day and I'm glad I did. My first one is still going strong... it's less than a year old... I just wanted to have a back-up in case Cowon ended up going the route they ended up going.

iOS can work for the iPhone and iPod Touch because even without all the apps, Wifi, and phone functions, it is simply a fantastic media player. Of course sound and video quality aren't top notch, but navigation and simplicity of use make up for that.

Until Android builds itself a good stand-alone media player, Android media players are going to constantly be shoddy iPod Touch wannabes.

I think you will find that already exists - think PowerAmp and Rockplayer. Whether or not Cowon will come with their own Media player is also to be seen, it could the rebirth of Jet Audio!!!

So far i´m liking what i´m hearing about this.

¿just wonder if we´ll always be stuck with android 2.1?

hopefully it´ll be like my s9 with only more video support, would love mkv and h264 support [thumbsup]

PowerAmp is freaking awesome. I would take that over an iPod Touch music player any day.

Top notch Cowon hardware plus a marketplace hack is going to make this an awesome player. I'm just hoping at has an accelerometer and digital compass are included to make it compatible with more apps. I'm already preparing to sell my 32GB J3 when this gets released in the US.

WOAAAAAAAH finally xD
Sadly my still High School budget will make this impossible for me, also that it will never get here unless i order it internationally which means $_$

Finally a Cowon player that sounds promising !!

I've heard that one before...

Only 2.1? I wonder if we'll have access to the android market or if they'll pull an Archos... Android in D3... It's either going to be a huge hit, or fail terribly. Since its the D3 they risk losing customers if they don't satisfy!

i have my hopes. the D2 was a BIG hit and still is to this day. far as FW and Android updates... i think they'll update Android but like with the new Archos devices. Cell Phones get it first hand while Other devices second due to FW or due to the company being slow

All I know is the money for this is burning a hole in my pocket and Im still not positive I want it. Based on what Ive read so far I do indeed, but that flame could be extinguished quickly. Ug, I hope it isnt long before we actually get to see it with a demo.

If it doesn't come w/64gb and the ability to bump it to 96gb (via the microSD card slot) I'll pass myself. I personally want a capacity bump, and 32gb isn't cutting it. Honestly, the J3 is more than sufficient then.

Wifi, apps, the internet??? Most now have this w/a phone - and those that don't will soon (since most phones are including these features standard nowadays). Even kids are getting cell phone now, so Cowon needs to really rethink what they're doing IMO.

I do like the inclusion of Android, yes, but it needs to be a a real upgrade to go w/it,...I'm not seeing it yet. It'll definitely have the SQ, but that's expected. I just want capacity in a flash player,...is that crazy?!?!?!
