Jasmine's back, and she and Donald tackle the Android-based Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet that just landed in the office--with plenty of unboxing goodness. Also, a new Cowon player is teased in Asia, and Jasmine rants uncontrollably about the sweet new Japan-only Walkmans that she's dying to get her hands on. Finally, no MP3 Insider would be complete without a sojourn into iPod Touch/Zune HD territory, which is exactly where the updated CNET Prizefight comes into play.

Cowon teases iAudio 9

Sony lets down U.S.

Prizefight: iPod Touch vs. Zune HD

-----------READER EMAIL----------

I'm bummed out that the Zune HD's browser apparently doesn't support flash video play, and I've rejected the new iPod Touch because of the awful user experience on iTunes.

I'm waiting for you guys to review the Archos Android Tablet (or have I missed it?)

a few things I'd like to know:

What do you think of its audio quality?
Does the internet browser support playing flash videos (ala youtube)?
What is battery life on the hard drive version?
Any "show stoppers" that I should know about?
