The Sony NWZ-X1000 touchscreen Walkman has gone down in price, at least for the 32GB version, which is now only $299 at SonyStyle. That’s a $100 price drop for the X1000, the first touchscreen Walkman that also happens to have an OLED screen like the Zune HD. The X1000 has had a difficult outing with [...]

The v1.10 software update is meant for Sony Walkmans NWZ-X1050/X1060. Sony says it will improve the NetFront browser. For those who haven’t tried browsing the net in this WiFi enabled Walkman PMP, this “improvement” is crucial if the user wants to do some Internet in their Walkman. Take note native Thai users. If you think [...]

The Walkman A840 is Sony’s thinnest ever and with the introduction of the 64GB Walkman A847, it’s about to change the way we see flash MP3 players. This is the sleekest in 3 decades of Walkman experience, so it’s quite the historic Sony PMP. The Walkman A840 is only 7.2mm thin and boasts a 2.8-inch [...]

Here are two more new models you can add to the Sony Walkman line-up apart from the NW-A840 we previously reported. The S640 is available in 8GB and 16GB variants and comes with ambient noise filtration. The S740, meanwhile, boasts of noise cancellation and has more variations to choose from – 8/16/32GB capacities. Both models [...]

The new A-series OLED PMP from Sony is their thinnest ever Walkman. The NW-A840 is only 7.2mm, so thin in fact that there’s little choice not to make this an OLED player. The screen is 2.8 inches, which means you will need the video out option to fully enjoy the 720 x 480 videos this [...]

Is the Nokia N97 not living up to your expectations? Well, then you might want to wait for this one instead, the Nokia N900 Rover (aka RX-51). This QWERTY-equipped touchscreen device sports almost similar specs to the N97, but runs on the new Maemo 5 platform, features a better 3.5-inch 800×480 display, dual-LED flash, and [...]

Still remember that Sony Walkman with built-in speakers we featured a couple of weeks ago? Well, it’s just appeared on a French site and is now available for retail. Two versions are available: an 8GB (NWZ-S544) model and a 16GB (NWZ-S6545) variant. Apart from the obvious built-in stereo speakers, this new S-series Walkman features a [...]

We choose to believe this supposed leakage of a new Sony Walkman that will follow the E440 for one reason: it’s too boring to be a fake. The unnamed Walkman has built-in speakers top and bottom of the screen. The design is similar to the E440 except for the speakers, which should make this PMP [...]

We wish the Sony Walkman E-series would offer better capacity, as it is, the non-touchscreen Walkman will come in 4GB, 8GB and 16GB. It has a 2.0-inch screen, an FM tuner and recorder. They don’t have an official price for it yet, though release date seems to be in a matter of weeks. We like to [...]
