I'm trying to do research on this and the clix 2 before I figure out which one to buy. Cnet is being annoying as all hell about testing the battery time. Usually, cnet's battery tests synch up fairly well to how it actually functions (at least at first) so I would use it - but I can't find anyone who's tested it with video. I'm certainly not taking cowon's word for it.

I've read reports from people who say the cowon will last 6 hours with video tops - even at the lowest bright level. And I think the clix2 is offering around 5, and if that is the case, I'd be happy witht he clix.

the screen - I saw a comparison video of the two screens together and it's no contest - the clix2 blows the d2 out of the park. The screens are both beautiful, but with cowon you need to get the angle just right, which is annoying.

The only thing, besides battery life, that I don't like about the clix 2 is the cradle.

I love the navigation of the clix. I don't think I would like a touch screen. Yet, for long flights I can't help thinking that battery life should win out over these other issues. It's a tossup for now.
