Yup I had the pics from the iRiver Korea Website and found out that it was all pictured text. That was why it was so long blush.gif . Now it's fixed. happy.gif
mmm
it looks good and would be interesting to try but $344 is pricey.

Yes, but it has so much more than other 4~5gb music players.

I think color LCD is a bit pointless, but cool nonetheless, and it has detachable battery, voice recorder and FM radio.

Detachable battery is my favorite part about H10, it's unlimited as long as I have unlimited money. tongue.gif

Yeah I agree that it is very pricey so I chose to stick with my Zen Micro. cool.gif

The only thing bad about this is its price ($344 USD). Nobody in their right mind would buy a 5GB player for that much.
mmm
Hopefully the street price is lower. Still though, unless my mini breaks i probably wont get a new mp3 player. It looks good but so does the zen micro at $250 or less.

Ditto. It seems to be the most promising player so far... unless Rio unveils the Chroma.

CES is three days away, hopefully we'll get more info and a price for the N.A. market.

That looks tight!

This looks awesome thumbs_up.gifsmile.gif

It comes with a rubber case which is nice, but that price point is going to kill off it's sales, especially with the popularity of the iPod mini and the newly loved Zen Micro.

Give it a few months for the price to drop wink.gif

And yes, it is drool-worthy. I'd love one but I'm 100% satisfied with my H140 for the time!

It costs that much converted from Won (korean money) but the H320 (which got for $285 here) is more then the H10 in Korea. It the amount converted over, so will probably be <$300

It won't when it just comes out. And actually, H320 is $329.99. I believe that this price is the dropped price from when it first came out. It will be the same to the H10, which will drop.

the price in america is $279 i believe and it will be available soon, in australia JB Hi-Fi will have it on the shelves in a couple weeks, but only the silver model or something cant remember.. its one colour at a time release. then next colour will come out a week or so later.. this is information i got from mistic river site that im checking regularly.

i dont want an HD based player because i want to use it while active doing sport etc. so i need flash, im waiting for some more info on the 1 and 2gb flash players in this design comming out.. because with apples possibly confirmed and price in less than a week i dont know how long i can wait for the iriver.. we'll have to see how apples turns out i guess.

but for 5gb this is a very nice player, i've downloaded some vids of it in action the scroll seems to work very well and the picture quality is very nice.

The price was actually set to $279.99, which is $30 higher than Zen Micro. I got the info from Won which is Korean currency and just changed tongue.gif . Well considering the 260K-Colour TFT LCD Screen and the iSkin-like case is worth more than $30.

That is a really stupid comparison because there's no hard drive in it.

That are plenty of CDP or Flash based MP3 that lasts almost as long as that one.

Personally, among all the 5gb mp3 players, I think H10 is the best one in terms of coolness and specs.
Xtreme $niper
The H10 looks like a cool player, too bad I already got my H120 though.

5GB is fine for me, this is the first one ive seen that sleak and the size i need, but for the price i may as well get a iPod 20GB or something...

I chose to keep my Zenny.
Just love it and I don't see like the real point in having picture screen.

yeah... if i would wait... it would be for the color screeded zen... plus a color screen just will suck up more battery life and i love the creative sound...

zen it is...

Heh, even if I wanted to change my player, I would be too lazy that I will stay here laugh.gif

In my knowledge you can continually scroll with touch pad on H10 as opposed to Zen Micro which you have to keep moving your thumb.

And iRiver is known for good sound quality.

The only drawback is its battery life, 12 hours, but it's at least much better than my 3G iPod. tongue.gif

I'm looking forward to the next generation of H100 or H300 series.
