Just a touch strip placed diagonally instead of vertically, which would take some getting used to if you're accustomed to the up/down navigation of a vertical.
Like the previous respondent, my only Cowon product uses a joystick so can't comment on day-to-day use of diagonal vs. vertical touch strips. But I have played with Creative and iriver (H10) vertical touch strip players as well a Cowon iAudio 6, which has the same diagonal touch strip as the 7. So can at least say that I don't care for touch strip navigation regardless of orientation. Some people like it though.
