According to this post in the CoreCodec Forums the highly anticipated CorePlayer Mobile for Symbian OS will be launched next Wednesday. CorePlayer is a multimedia player that supports a large number of formats including WMA, OGG, FLAC, DivX and XviD. The player will be available for S60 2nd Edition, S60 3rd Edition, UIQ 2 and UIQ 3 devices. Read on.

Lol at it crashing in the middle of the video, but otherwise looks like a great app.

jah, Symbian OggPlay (symbianoggplay.sourceforge.net) works nicely on S60 3rd ed - at least it worked fine on my E70 (until my E70 blew up... grrr) - plus it's open source and already available. There are a few quirks with fonts etc but the functionality works fine - music library, browsing, playing, key mapping, etc. Only thing I missed compared to the Nokia player was being able to use the Nokia 3.5mm jack adapter kit's remote to control the volume.

(Despite the name it plays mp3s and things too - presumably every format supported by the Nokia player.)
