Dcube: Portable Audio With Ogg And A Scroll Wheel

Slowtreme writes "There have been many attempts recently to cash in on Apple's iPod success. Napster, Dell, and others have made iPod clones. This Korean Dcube looks like they are going all out. With 1.5 gig, Ogg and MP3 support, grey scale display, USB2.0, wireless, FM radio, it looks like a nice device. Most noticeable however is the scroll wheel, Apple holds patents (pending) on scroll wheel design. How much noise will this make?" (The Napster-branded one is actually a Samsung product; Samsung, too, is supporting Ogg Vorbis in some models, though not in that one.)

Works with iTunes and iTMS? NO.

Oh well. Don't underestimate the power of good software. After using iTunes for a bit I'd be hard pressed to use any other music software. I don't have an MP3 player yet, but I'm considering and an iPod is currently the only choice for me. Steve Jobs knows what he's doing :)
