Your heavenly descriptions of the V10 dont match what iriver gave out during CeBIT. The storage is only a measly 4-8GB and you mentioned the larger capacities a lot. Do you think iriver will be using the new 16/32GB of NAND flash? I would pay a hundred dollars more if the storage was in 32GB of NAND flash rather than an HDD equivalent. At CeBIT, the V10 used a 3" TFT-LCD in 480 x 272 resolutions. GPS was also announced as an optional (ie: not free) feature at CeBIT. I do not see the V10 playing games. The way I see it, the G10 is the better model because it offers games and web browsing (and GPS too?). The G10 and V10 seem to fighting each other in the same low capacity DAP market which makes absolutely no sense. Just bump the V10 to 32GB of NAND flash please and than it makes sense. I want the V10 to support internet web browsing and wireless media transfers to the device (meh, I'm not hung up on this one though), but there is no such thing as a perfect DAP, ever.

edit: Hasn't iriver stopped using the "R"? If so, than why is an employee still spelling it "thy olden" way Hopefully you print my post and take it to the President of iriver... I might have missed this, but how many colors will the V10 and G10 display?

Email this to iriver about getting new firmware for the clix. They will probably take ideas for their new players too so it's better to tell them what needs to be improved before releasing a new player.
