Sony’s new Walkman A810 and S610 get their prices slashed. It looks like because of the new iPods and the iPhone price cut, all PMPs and MP3 players from here on and going to get Chinese PMP prices. The 2GB Walkman A810 gets $20 off and will now retail for $120 and $150 for the 4GB and $200 for the 8GB. The Walkman S610 starts at $100 for the 2GB and $130 and $180 for the 4GB and 8GB respectively. It’s a good gesture and all for Sony, but with the new iPod Nano 8GB going for $199 and boasting a much better screen and pretty good audio playing time (24 hours), never mind the Cover Flow user interface, the gesture doesn’t have much impact, at least on this blogger.
