Along with two other iriver products, our beloved clix2 was awarded The Good Design Award 2007 for its outstanding designs and functions
A little introduction of the Good Design Award:

It's kind of sad the lavish praise that's thrown at anything Apple craps out. It's good to see iRiver get some recognition. Too bad the consumers can't realize how stupid they're being and what they're missing out on.
I agree with everyone that iriver's designs now equal or even surpass Apple's designs. If iriver wants to advertise this then they have to go viral, something like the SONY Bravia ads. Didn't iriver get the same reward for the U10/clix?
