Cowon A2 is the near perfect Portable Video Player
The Cowon A2 is an excellent Portable Video Player that has the total package – excellent battery life, sleek design, sturdy built quality, and a host of features that will keep you occupied for hours. The firmware can be a bit dodgy at times, but Cowon has a reputation of releasing regular firmware updates. Sound quality is rock solid, and its built-in microphone offers great quality recording. TV-Out pictures do not suffer any loss of quality and the included universal charger is a boon to frequent travelers. (features below) Via dapreview
