    yeah!
    and the word iaudio makes it sound like an ipod rip off.

    what kind of headphones do you use?

    Sorry, I meant IEMs. I just junked my pair of ER6i headphones after 2 years (they broke). Before that, I had the regular ER6s. The Altec Lansing IEMs I just bought use Etymotic technology, and for the price ($110 on Amazon), I'd place their sound quality between the ER6i and the ER4. A great value, IMO.

    cowon iaudio

    get the one UTWeezer uses if youve got money or one of the X5 models.
    X5 has bigger capacity but bigger dimensions.

    for flash, get the g3 if you value battery life over sexyness.
    u2 if you value sexyness over battery life.
    u3 if you want to watch videos.

    The worst freakin headphones I've ever bought. Excellent sound but poorly designed. Why the hell do you make 1 earphone cord smaller than the other? I have 2 wear my iPod on my arm at all times. The extension cord attachment makes the thing unnecessarly longer. I left them in my car and realized that the silicon can't take the Texas heat coz it started decomposing. Patched it up with electrical tape. The sounds is excellent, the earbuds are great but the design is garbage.

    I got a 20 gb color ipod with this designer skin.

    2nd Gen 20gb Ipod
    500mb ipod shuffle (the wife's)
    1gb ipod shuffle (I keep it in my pocket to transfer files at work and have some music with me all the time)

    http://www.iaudio.com

    the best sounding mp3 players out there. Bar none. I'm not a fanboy. I've owned iPods and they put them to shame.

    you can buy cowon iaudio products either from their online store or get them at newegg.com for about $20 cheaper.

    do you mean those earphones that are asymetrical in length?
    if you do, those earphones are meant to be looped around your neck (the longer side) and the player goes in your jacket or pants pocket. having it looped around your neck takes away some of the weight of the cord away from your ears.

    by the way, would most of you agree with sony products being overpriced for its quality?

    Ok first of all, I only have a creative 500 MB mp3 player. Now I feel like buying an elite mp3 player.

    How much was your Cowon iaudio 6? How long does it last? What does HDD player mean? BBE sound? OGG?

    I have an IRiver H320 which holds 20 gigs, sounds awesome, has an fm tuner, recorder and plays most audio and video formats. I scorned buying an mp3 player for ages and I now I can't imagine living without one. Very, very happy with the IRiver

    Now listening to: "Violets for your furs" by Frank Sinatra
