Cheapest Cowon D2 4 GB Portable Media Player (Black)


I listen to a lot of audiobooks, and find the D2 an excellent device for that purpose, in particular the bookmarks feature. The Cowon works with NetLibrary,Overdrive and Audible. The display is large and clear, which I appreciate. The battery seems to last forever, much longer than other MP3s I have owned.

I have Vista Home Premium, 64-bit on my computer, and had no compatibility problems.

The manual and customer support pages are terrible. The manual doesn't cover all of the functions, at least that I could find, like how to delete bookmarks. That took a lot of trial and error. [On the bookmarks page, click "settings" at the bottom of the page, and choose to delete one or all bookmarks from the menu.]

My other complaint is that the display, while large and clear, is very busy, and it's not possible to delete unwanted information. I've read that the new version, the D2+, has an improved display. When I purchased the D2 I didn't think the improved display was worth an additional $30, but now I'm not so sure.

I have not found the JetAudio software very useful and don't have it on my computer, but perhaps that's because I don't listen to music that much on the Cowon.Get more detail about Cowon D2 4 GB Portable Media Player (Black).
