Microsoft’s new iPod Touch killer has hit the FCC, which means it won’t be too long until ZuneHD will be available Stateside.

The COWON O2, along with the S9, will be available in November. The O2 is a 4.3-inch AMOLED player with DMB support and should be priced like the A3 - not the most affordable PMP out there but, hey, it’s got a 4.3-inch AMOLED screen and NINE hours of video playback. The COWON S9 hasn’t [...]
