Do you mean to say that Cowon might not come through? That's weird, because the D2 is seen as one of the best sounding and highest-quality players in the market today. Plus, like the D2, the S9 has a Flash UI interface, meaning that it's completely customizable by people who know how to work with Flash. There are probably about a 100 or so custom themes for the D2 out right now, all of which will probably be easily ported to the S9, with small adjustments to account for the bigger screen.
I'm definitely getting this when it comes out. I don't really care that it doesn't have an SDHC slot like the D2. I may get the Meizu M8 as well, but at this stage am pretty sure that by the time the M7 comes out, the competition will be WAYY ahead.
Cowon Germany suggests an EU release date of October/November 2008, and they're pretty good about releasing stuff on time. A US release can't be too far behind.
