So I am looking at a Cowon Plenue M PMP and I used to have a Cowon S9 so I know their stuff is good but I am curious about just how good some of these components really are.

It has Cowon’s JetEffect 7, an ARM Cortex A9 1.2Ghz Dual Core CPU, an AMOLED 3.7" 16M Color Display.
The chassis is a High-strength Metal Unibody
It has 64GB High Speed Internal storage

You can also plug it into a PC and use it as an external Sound Card/DAC for the PC via USB.
