Cowon V5 ‘HD’ – Wince based
Cowon looks to be releasing another media player in January, this pretty slick looking player looks to run on WinCE 6.0, some may cringe at hearing WinCE, but its more than common for Korean media players to run on some sort of modififed version of WinCE.
Like other Korean based WinCE players, this will probably a have a totally custom UI, but will probably not allow full access to the WinCE interface, its another very common thing for Korean players to lock down the ability for users to fully utilize the wince OS.
The V5 will come with a 4.8″: high res screen with a touch screen interface. Although specific hardware information is limited, the V5 will have a RSS reader, which leads me to suspect that this will have wifi built in and some sort of internet connectivity. The V5 will cost about USD$250+ for the 8GB, a 16GB version will also be available.
