The new Sony one is nice. I hate to admit it... but damn, it's expensive. The granite look... weird... but sexy.
The P3 has a nicer interface than the s9 as well.
iTouch can go fuck a door, iPhone is acceptable...
anyone know anything about the archos?

It looks really nice. I just hope Microsoft doesn't mess this up with the marketing though. The Zune could be a lot more successful if they could just their act together.
But, maybe they are getting their act together. Apparently Microsoft's been asking developers to make apps for the Zune HD.

It definitely looks good but I agree the hard drive should be larger if it's going to be advertising HD video, that drive would be full in a day easily. I currently own the Halo 3 edition 30gb Zune and like it alot but I also agree with mgz, the Zune has shit for codec support.

Just to be anal, it's flash-based.

AFAIK what I've read is that if it's not gorilla glass, it's something damn similar to it. Almost all PMP players have such glass nowadays. To consider plastic is ridiculous. At least, thus is the current generation.
However, Software goes a LONG way as well. I thought the S9 had a pimpin interface. Then I saw the P3 interface... ooo lah lah.
Then that NWZX1050 from Sony. Oh damn. That was eye candy. Pricey as hell, but god damn. Interface. Intuitive. Clarity, beautiful. Easy to use. (not as easy as iPods, but then again, iPods have little to no functions on the song anyways wheras sony's interface can easily rival the p3 and s9 for "on song" options) It boasts an OLED just like the S9 but damn, the interface makes way better use of the clarity and everything than the S9. (Seriously looked like darker blacks on the Sony than the S9. I was comparing my S9 to that Sony in store. We're talking LOTS of black and not greyish interface on the S9) I like the weight, nice and heavy but compact. Smaller than the touch and s9... but seriously... the touch is dumb. I saw reviews that were like "So? is the screen as big as the iTouch?" (I wanted to write a comment saying, "MY E-PENOR IS BIGGER! DOES THAT MEAN I'M BETTER?")
Normally, Sony's music has not made me turn a head since the walkman and mini disc. I knew it was pretty decent due to the PSP and the built in function in their phones... but this mp3 was sexy. I mean... sexy. The s9 and p3 are raw bikini sexy, but the Sony sits like a hot girl with a maid outfit. Totally weird, almost out of place, but you can't help but stare.
GOD DAMMIT WHY IS IT 30-40% MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE S9/P3 FOR 16GB? (New, Sony... I know. I'm just wanting one for the sake of wanting one)
