Installation:
Since it works as a standard MTP media device, you don't need the Samsung Media Studio software installed to take advantage of most functionality of the P2. However, this software will give you a one-stop location to convert videos, sync datacasts and cover all your other media syncing all in one convenient location.

Testing:
Having over 3 weeks with the P2 gave me plenty of time to get well acquainted. Audio quality itself was superb, I've never really been disappointed in any MP3 players from Samsung when it comes to audio quality. Their DNSe 2.0 sound enhancement engine along with the clarity adjustment can make just about any pair of headphones sound like an expensive sound system.

I should mention here that I applied three updates to the P2 from the Samsung website. I updated the firmware, I installed the menu updates (which give you more visual styles) and I installed the 3-games pack as well. This way I could experience the player as it should currently be shipping with these updates.

The touch navigation through the menus was a new experience for me as I have not yet had the chance to play with any other DMP's like this. Once I got used to it, navigation around the player's menus became almost second nature. The ability to hold and drag scroll bars is certainly faster than using a d-pad style of button for navigation. Although it's no MultiTouch, Samsung calls their touchscreen GUI the Emoture Finger-Gesture GUI. The only complaints I had here was that it seemed innaccurate at times when I knew I clearly touched one button but it would seem to think that I touched another nearby one.

Conclusion:
My overall use experience with this player was excellent. It's large and very colour screen and themes really make it stand out in your hand. Watching videos on a screen this size is a breeze, it's no longer an uncomfortable thing to do like on many smaller screened media players. Showing pictures was also done at ease and the FM radio was a well-received feature. The icing on the cake is the true power this thing holds with the integrated bluetooth. Once more media players start supporting this, you'll be able to wirelessly send and receive files amongst your friends, eliminate that headphone wire and of course use your MP3 player to talk on your phone (never thought I'd say that one). For a fraction of the cost of many competing players in this market, you certainly get a lot more features for your money with the Samsung P2!

Pros:
Excellent design
Colourful and easily modifiable interface and themes are really a step-up over other media players on the market
Great sound and very usable sound enhancements (like DNSe, clarity and street mode)
Battery time
A few colours available too, and I'm hoping that more will be on the way to match up with their other current players
Overall feature set was excellent with lots of useful features on the player and nothing big lacking

Cons:
Touch screen seemed a little inaccurate at times
No voice recording abilities? It seems the mic on the player is only for making phone calls
A 32gb model added to this line, at the right price, would give them a big pushing point
Should at least have a built-in tone generator, if not a small speaker, for the alarm functionality
