COWAN 7
The only problem i have is that the in-line hole is vuneralble to moisture. i had fatal results before from this overlook from the manufacture. With the U2, they had a case that would cover the hole. My solution was to by a cheap pair of head phones and use the connection to insert into the hole while i bike or run. Other than that it skips and freaks out once in a while.
i use a vinyl restorer to rub on the product that helps with the finger prints.

great little player
Cowon iAUDIO 7 Portable 8 GB MP3 Player (Red)
Bought this to listen to at work and I am glad I bought this player. Sound is great as is battery life. I usually listen to it 10 plus hours a day and can go all week before charging. Well worth the money in my opinion unless you like playlists which this player doesn't do well. Not a big deal for me , the sound and battery life were what sold me on this player.

Exactly what I was looking for
This device is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted something that required no software to load and use and had excellent sound quality. I like the flexibility of choosing which format to use (mp3, ogg, flac, wav). This is truly drag and drop for file transfer. I can't comment on the included software, as I have not installed it yet. I am only using this for music, so I also can't comment on the video or bookmarking capabilities. My only problem so far has been that the included ear buds were slightly too large for my small ears. I ended up replacing them. Sound quality is excellent. I can hear all of the detail on the various types of music that I have listened to. The screen is very small, but very sharp and clear. The slide touch controls were simple to learn. The hold button is critical, though, as the buttons are pretty sensitive. overall, I am extremely pleased with my purchase.

Don't by Cowon products...
I have been thoroughly disappointed with their products and lack of customer service. They average about 2-3 weeks to return an email for customer service issues. I finally got through to a representative and was advised to send the product back to them, at my own expense and they emailed back about 1 month later stating that there is no problem with the item. When I emailed back with a detailed description of the specific situation I encountered (item stopped powering on or charging through the USB port) they ceased communication. I still haven't heard back from them, but will never buy their products ever again. They are terrible both at manufacturing and caring for their customers.

Very good, 4 to 5 stars
I have used an iAudio G3 and was pretty happy with the performance, radio, and the fact it uses an AA battery. But the 2GB is getting low for longer trips.
I was attracted to the iAudio 7 for 3 reasons: good battery life and great sound quality (by reviewers) and the GORGEOUS display/finish from the pictures at the COWON website.
I am generally satisfied with this unit. 8GB will be good enough for me for a while. Since I used G3 before, the navigation is pretty similar, which may take some getting use to for new customers. The sound quality is slightly better than G3, in my opinion.
The touch pad does seem too sensitive. I often activate the recording function while listening to radio. Just have to remember using the "hold" button.
It does look very nice, too.
