(including danish band The Fashion amongst the albums playing.)

The videos say it all. Unlike every other phone set to try and compete with the iphone, you can look up the Palm Pre on youtube, every video of it's performance being truthfully fast, smooth and simply impeccable in every single hands on.

Hardware wise we're looking at a 3.1" capacitive touchscreen on top of an 800mhz Texas Instruments processor. It carries Bluetooth, Wifi (b/g), 8gb storage, 3.5mm jackplug and last but not least wireless charging thru the touchstone accessory.

Just to sum up the specs before taking a closer look at the amazing design.

Clean backside in gunmetal black.


It looks as though the S9 will be the first touchscreen player, to have nice tucked away controls, allowing you to function when not looking at the screen (fx.in your pocket.) play/pause in the middle, skip buttons on the right and volume on the left. Very slick details.


Looks to be the sleakest of Ui's Cowon has yet to launch.


Clean and neat UI, aesthetically in the middle of Samsung and Apple. Very promising stuff.

Cant wait for this one to surface.
