Gizmodo, is there any reason why iFans, Gather behind me (iAirmanshirk69) hasn't been banned yet? Just look at his posts in this thread.
He refuses to acknowledge he is trolling and being a fanboy and continues to single-handedly ridicule Cowon and irritate every poster here with ignorant impunity.
Please don't tell me you agree with him or his attitude, seeing how you actually know Cowon and have been following the S9 and the interest it's been generating.
Gizmodo look at this guy, hes trolling up and down, posting off topic.Is there a reason he hasnt been banned yet?
He refuses to acknowledge he is trolling and being a nuisance. He continues to ridicule your users and irritate everyone looking for some reasonable posts with highly ignorant impunity.
Please dont tell me you agree with him or his attitude, seeing as how your looking for insightful posts, not off topic and annoying.
See how easy it is, i can do it too. Why dont you stay on topic and stop annoying people. KThanks :)
@iFans, Gather behind me.: How about you quit your whining and accept that this probably will best the iPod touch and iPhone media functions by far, especially with a sweet ass OLED screen.
I said nothing about apple, but if you want to bring them into it then fine. First of all this thing will not surpass apple's iphone or ipod touch, to say so is laughable. muha. and nothing will for at least a few years. Wanna know how i know? Because you all said 2 years ago the iphone would be beaten and it still isnt. funny aint it? Steve did say it was 5 years ahead of all other phones, shoulda listened :)
However, back to your funny little comment. If this doesn't have 10,000 applications, then why chose it over an ipod touch. And im not saying that because its apple, its a simple math equation, lemme show you (5 < 10,000) See how 10,000 is bigger? (Hope that less than sign isnt messed up because its an html tag)
This will be just another flop like the zune. And this has nothing to do with apple. It has to do with other companies having no originality or thoughts of their own. And im not saying they should copy the app store like google, microsoft and blackberry did. Im just saying it would be hard to live without all these apps now that i have them. Its wonderful having an app for everything i need. Anyway im off to church, bbl!
@iFans, Gather behind me.: seriously, just shush. who cares about 10,000 apps when 9,950 of them are garbage. This looks better than my ipod touch, may just swap.
@JellyDoodle91: Monsieur Fanbois Pettiblay may be spouting off a bit, but I have to agree. There's nothing that the iPod Touch doesn't do extremely well as a PMP, except maybe on the price/storage side of the equation. Sure, an 80-120GB drive would certainly make it better, but I agree that the wireless capabilities and 3rd party application options make the iPod Touch a winner of a PMP.
yay, an iphone can do 10,000 different things in a mediocre fashion. of those 10,000, it's a mediocre phone and a mediocre music player. and a crappy camera.
cowon makes fantastic music players. it's what they do. they are objectively, measureably better in sound output. see the DACs they use.
you're right. most people want "more" from their devices. apple does this- it gives people a device that does a bazillion things at a "good enough" quality.
will the iphone/pod touch ever replace DSLR cameras? no.
will they ever replace the nintendo DS/PSP or their successors? no.
will they ever replace QUALITY music players? no.
this won't "beat" the ipod. it's a fantastic player for people who demand quality. unfortunately, most people don't demand quality. they demand trendy, "good enough" products.
@iFans, Gather behind me.: Actually pretty much everyone here knows just what exactly a fanboy is. Additionally, for the most part the term is not really used as one of endearment. No it tends to be used more as an insult, to mock the person it's directed at. Your total, one-sided devotion to Apple products in general and the iphone in particular is not so much the issue here. What is the issue is your constant parroting of the same information, over and over to the point of ad nauseam. We get it already.
"Shouting random words wont sell this thing"
"God, get an education."
It looks like you are the one who should get educated. I mean really, a simple Google search of the word AMOLED would have given you the answer if you didn't know what it meant instead of making a childish remark. You're only making yourself look bad by doing that and setting yourself up for ridicule by everyone else here.
It's also clear once an argument reaches a certain level which requires an educated response your rebuttals degrade into utter nonsense. Get a clue and expand your horizons a little while you're at it....

(I'm so happy right now, I could kiss you, and I'm not into kissing dudes.)

Well that's a deal breaker.
Now i know there isnt a price yet but who wants to bet its a lot more than most of us are willing to pay.
And how much memory will it hold (better have a friggin hard drive in there for being that fat)

Yup, still no one gave me a valid reason that the iphone doesnt own this garbage. Owned :)

Its a very valid reason, so ipod touch wins there.@Qwertyfreak is jumping on the bandwagon:
a) opinion, not shared by most.
b) Shouting random words wont sell this thing
c) Thats fine, again, but i would like to think most of us want more from our devices we pay so much for, not less.
d) Absolutely correct, no fans at all.

haha you fanboys are so laughable :)
12/07/08
Anyway, you really can't call me a fanboy. I have a MacBook and an iPod Touch. I'm still allowed to think something non Apple is cool.
12/07/08
Your so narrow minded that you dont even know what fanboy is hahaha. God, get an education.
