The standard non-bluetooth S-Serie will come in 3 capacities (8, 16, 32GB) and 8 colours (Blue / Vivid Pink / Green / Light /Purple / Gold / White / Black).  The K model with the speaker stand also ships in the same 8 colours but only 8 anad 16 GB sizes.  Finally the bluetooth equipped model ships only in 8 GB sizes and with 4 colours (Vivid pink / blue / white / black).
