iAudio Korea calls them in a bit blasphamous way "Stylish! Everlasting! MP3 Bible". But the only news I could see (as a non-Korean speaking) is besides its planned 256MB, 512MB and a 1GB units, the first iAudio device with 2GB flash memory.

Ya, as others in this forum have already said, it's a bit a iriver ifp-500 look-alike. Even the specs are not too different (e.g. 50h battery life instead of 40h).

I think you're missing the proportions right now since it is really small. E.G. smaller than the Iaudio 4

Dimensions:
G3: 64.0 x 45.0 x 17.1 mm³
iAudio5: 76.0 x 35.0 x ? mm³

Thickness of the i5 should be around the same as of the G3.

As the Omniscient said on DAPreview, "MP3 Bible" is the coolest word I've heard in a long time.

I like the red/orange one the most. I like a rectangular player more than an I4-shaped one, seems to look more professional to me (dont ask me why! )

Wow, I'm really impressed with that cradle. It looks almost as good as the one that comes with the Sony MZ-NH1. That is a cradle, right? (I'm talking about the black pedestal.)

I don't think it's a cradle actually. I guess it is a promotion stand to make the player stand out better. What is the need of a cradle for a flash-player anyway?

I think exactly the same like Ojjorz said before. I mean, on this edge, I don't think there is any port or something. Well, but it would be very nice indeed.
