Cowon today revealed that it will bring its S9 Curve media player to the US in December. The device is the Korean company's most direct answer to the iPod touch and centers on a rare, 3.3-inch AMOLED touchscreen that both produces more vivid colors than LCDs and also boosts the battery life to 40 hours of music. It also includes an accelerometer to rotate the image into landscape, Bluetooth for wireless audio, and is unusually fast for its category through a dual-core processor.
The firm hasn't yet provided prices for the American version of the S9, though the 8GB and 16GB existing capacities point to pricing likely closer to the entry-level iPod touch models. Prices should also drop lower than any Korean equivalents due to the need to strip out the T-DMB mobile TV tuner, which has no support in the US. [viaAVING]
