The Cowon Q5W 60GB is the flagship of Cowon portable media players with a list of features that covers all the bases. To begin with, the Q5W utilizes a 5" touchscreen with 800 x 480 resolution that displays over 16 million colors. This screen is where Cowon's intuitive Wingclick GUI is accessed with your fingers or stylus. When it comes time to enjoy your music or movies, which this unit can hold 60GB of, free yourself from wires and use your Bluetooth enabled headphones or speakers. The Q5W allows you surf the web wirelessly with built-in Wi-Fi or engage in voice enabled chat sessions. With the Q5W, the options are endless.
This stylish dark navy media player handles all the most popular media formats such as MP3, WMA, ASF, OGG, WAV, FLAC, APE, MPC, AVI, ASF, WMV, MPG, OGM, JPG, BMP, PNG, RAW up to 10MB, and TXT. If you have a digital camera, there is no need to upload to your computer because the Q5W also acts as an USB Host enabling you to view and store your pictures or video files. Of course the Q5W has a FM tuner and recorder plus voice recorder with embedded microphone.

Comments about Cowon Q5W 60GB Portable Media Player:
No problems connecting WiFi or even navigating between the different interfaces. Am still learning about WinCE and am having problems getting it to sync with my 64bit Vista Ultimate. It is a little heavy, your not going to just strap it to your arm and go with this baby, but for traveling, I could replace that bulky laptop easily.

Comments about Cowon Q5W 60GB Portable Media Player:
The great thing about this product is the quality of the materials that is built in and most of all the sound ( like all Cowon products).
The screen is superb!
The thing that is not so great is the Windows mobile 5 that comes with it and the lack of audio an video input option.
