Cowon iAudio T2 (2GB) Review

CNET has reviewed the Cowon iAudio T2 (2GB) player which is a "music-centric MP3 player". 'It may surprise you, but there's still a demand for MP3 players without photo and video playback features. Some people just want a compact device that plays music and makes exceptional work of it. For those users, there's the Cowon iAudio T2, a rectangular, black flash player available in 1GB and 2GB ($160) capacities. Sure, the T2 offers some nice extras, such as an FM tuner and a wearable, pendant-style design, but these don't distract from its main purpose: outputting great-sounding audio.

The iAudio T2 is tiny and light--2 by 1.1 by 0.5 inches, 0.86 ounces--as is required for a pendant-style MP3 player, but the tactile buttons that line the edges of the device are easy to operate and don't seem too crowded, though there is room for them to be a bit more spread out. On one side, you get play/pause and shuttle keys for track-skipping and menu selection, while the other side offers menu and volume controls. The bottom of the T2 holds the proprietary USB port and reset button, and the top contains the headphone jack. This can accommodate the included lanyard earbuds with a special locking mechanism, or you can simply use any standard pair of headphones. The front of the player sports a rather small four-line OLED screen, but its text is bright and easy to read. '
