Gizmodo got hands-on time with the Samsung Helix, and apparently one of their gripes is that the interface seems to lag a bit, especially in the "tagging" department for XM+Napster features. I would assume this is still a prototype device, so the interface features may not be 100% polished yet - but it's worth noting. Still, Giz loved the interface otherwise.
The boys over at XM411 also have some incredible photos of the two devices side-by-side and next to a PDA to show the relative size of these next generation XM2go units. Great pics, and definitely should be checked out.
As for release date, word has it that we can expect to see both the Samsung Helix and Pioneer Inno at retailers in April. This isn't official yet, but that's what we have to work with as specifics so far.
Pssst.. have you voted yet? Get in there and make the Pioneer Inno Gadget of the Year! Because remember, it's not just a Pod... it's The Mothership!
