Anyone know anything about the Samsung K5?

I think this thing seems really sweet.  Cool, sleek interface (completely smooth and dark when off... the buttons are touch-sensitive).  The external speakers that slide out.

I've read some reviews and it seems that other than the design and speakers, it doesn't do anything else that stands out, but it seems like a really cool non iPod.

This is the first I've ever heard of it.  It certainly looks sexy though.

It's actually a very solid player.  The speaker slides firmly and it probably wouldn't open too much in your pocket if you carry it that way.  The speakers are good, but nothing spectacular.  Navigation is pretty intuitive, the only thing is that it's a touchpad.  I would have much preferred tactile controls.  Although, the device clicks when you press a button so it almost simulates feedback.  All in all, a decent player.  Only thing I wish for is a larger capacity and a slightly lower price.
