Cowon S9 16 GB PMP

December 25th, 2008

It’s a cool looking unit, the Cowon S9 PMP, but then you’d expect that for a US$240 tagged PMP. You’d also expect a few nice bells and whistles so here they are for you to work exactly how cool the S9 is.

* 16 GB capacity
* Touchscreen interface
* USB 2.0 and Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity
* Composite video out
* 2.2 x 4.17 x 0.5 inches
* 2.7 oz
* Video formats supported - AVI, WMV
* Audio formats supported - MP3/2/1, WMA, FLAC, OGG, WAV, APE
* 480 x 272 video res
* 11 hours of video playback time
* 55 hours of audio playback time
* Built in microphone
* Handles jpg and txt file fomat

Despite all this we feel US$240 is a tad too high making the Cowon S9 more ho hum than ho ho ho. For example the Cody 30 GB PMP is available for only US$185, admittedly sans touchscreen, but hey $60 so I can get grubby fingerprints all over my viewing screen, I don’t think so, but then may be we’re just old-fashioned kinda guys.
