Cowon V5: To Buy, or not to buy?
fohfoh:
So why can't you swap out the router? Would save you a hell of a lot of money you could push towards a V5.
I concur proin. review!

But I dunno... The V5 for sure is badass, but depends how much you really need a pmp over internet connection.

it's a router. got one ethernet slot left.. and we could wire it to my laptop
because wireless-G doesn't support 35/35, sadly.
i would use it for seeding and downloading 12413 anime at once, probably.
V5 is indeed badass. oh proin, when you get definitely post a review! :D
and congratulations on UE, i approve.

You could try chaining a Wireless-N router to the modem/router, but it really depends on the G router's ethernet speed. Though at 54Mbps 802.11G ought to be fast enough.
@fohfoh: you can try it, but the P-5 watch (armed with an M16) will shoot you, I'm having it delivered to the ship, not my house in Japan.
I'll definitely write some sort of review.
fohfoh:
Wifi G lacks the range of Draft N and the receiving power. Err... I mean laptop wifi cards. Not entirely sure about transmitting of it. But I assume it's about the same idea.
Consider replacing the antenna and maybe updating firmware if possible?
Quick question, V5 has wifi, correct? or no?

Not as far as I can tell, no. However, that's fine by me. If I'm going to do any real downloading I want my laptop with me anyway (greater storage capacity). I don't need a PMP with WiFi.

OK. Sounds about right. I don't recall seeing info about wifi on it (not that I needed it on it). But then again, I looked at it a while back.
Nice purchase again proin. Though personally, if I had such a big pmp, i'd go with some tin cans to go with it instead of in ear. But that's just personal. Great headphones though.
