Rival to the iPod touch?

It comes in 3 sizes: 8MB, 16MB and 32MB but also has a microSD port for boosting space.

please say that's a typo...

Coolbeans

But I doubt they can bring the price down sufficiently to make it a viable ipod-alternative. I guess it's meant for slightly more than that though.

'Smart Player'? Seriously? Is that the best they can do? Nothing called 'Smart Player' will provide competition to the iPod Touch. Period.

At least it actually supports popular video formats. For me, that and GPS inclusion makes it superior to the iPod Touch. I'd certainly consider it.

So if this Galaxy S smart player is running Froyo, where is the Froyo update for the regular Galaxy S?
