The COWON O2 has a huge 4.3-inch AMOLED screen complemented by up to 32GB of storage. We already mentioned it supports DMB TV. What we haven’t mentioned is the awesome file support of this mammoth (this adjective is warranted) PMP: ivX, XviD, WMV, H.264, M-JPEG, MPEG-4 SP / ASP, MPEG1 videos and MP3, WMA, AC3, AAC, FLAC, OGG, Apple Lossless, WAV, G.726, PCM, True Audio , Monkey Audio, MusePack. Wow, that Monkey Audio (APE lossless) support is just awesome, though not that unusual if one were used to buying Chinese MP4s. Still no pricing. It comes in pink, white and black and plays 18 hours of music and 9 hours of video.

    What about wavpack? If I remember correctly, iaudio x7 has it.

    “H.264 support” seems somewhat fishy. It doesn’t say which Profile of H.264 is supportet.

    Only H.264 LP as with the A3, or full H.264 HP as everybody would like to have ?

    As we remember the A3 was advertized with H.264 HP support which seems to be impossible on that Hardware, even after some firmware updates.

    Sorry pal… you seems to be not so familiar with Cowon players… APE have been in the assortment of Cowon D2 formats since long time ago.
    H.264 is the shit that is used by Apple devices to nominate their own compression codec.
