It’s been months since the COWON Q5W got previewed for the US-market and weeks since the rumors of its October release. Well, there’s good news for those of you who have been eagerly waiting for this super-PMP! The COWON Q5W is set to launch in the US next week for a whopping $549.99 for the 40GB version (plus $50 if you want it in 60GB). Before you start freaking out at the rather exhorbitant price, take note that what you have here is a PMP with a 5-inch WVGA (800×480) display, 64MB of flash memory, 128MB of DDR2 SDRAM, 802.11b/g WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, WinCE 5.0, a voice recorder, photo / text viewer, and support for assloads of file formats (including the more obscure ones like .OGG and FLAC). Not bad at all!
