  1. I don't understand why the display is such an issue. Color is useless on a DAP and eats up battery life -- I always thought the black&white ipod displays looked cooler than their color ones. I don't look at album art while I listen to music on my stereo or computer at home and I wouldn't while on the go with a DAP. If you could actually see front & back of album art and all pages of inserts/lyrics/etc. that might be cool, but it's superfluous as far as I'm concerned when players have basic issues to fix. The NW-A series has a really neat style and tons of benefits over the ipod, but 20GB is pathetic. Also, there's something to be said for all the ipod hacks & user-developed software that I haven't seen for Sony players. I know I don't have to use itunes if I get an ipod, but I don't think there's an alternative to Connect/SonicStage proprietary bullshit. Portable HDD functionality (like the iAudio) would be amazing but I know that's out of the question with big-name DAPs. I'm just really bummed that companies are missing their opportunities to make an ipod killer when we are in dire need of one.
  2. Anyone know when this will be available in the USA? If it's way off I might import from Europe -- will I have any compatibility issues doing this? Thanks for your help.
