and do-it-yourself kits are available, for those Billyburg hipsters
that want to make their own."

Mossberg: Sony's new Walkman is no iPod
killer
07/28/2004 01:08 PMThe
Wall Street Journal's technology columnist, Walter
Mossberg, t
akes a look at Sony's new 20GB Network Walkman NW-HD1, the first
Walkman portable music device to feature a hard drive (subscription
required to read the article). Already dubbed an "iPod killer" by some
industry wags, the Walkman fails to impress Mossberg on several
points, including "confusing" user interface, "tedious" song-loading
process that took more than two hours to transfer 416 songs, and less
robust companion music download service that also sports more
restrictive rules than the iTunes Music store. "The iPod wins this
round, and remains champion," said Mossberg.

Sony takes aim at iPod with new
hard-disk Walkman
07/01/2004 08:50 AMSony Corp. has unveiled its first hard-disk drive-based digital music
player to bear the Walkman name. The device was launched on Thursday
as the Walkman brand marked its 25th anniversary. The NW-HD1 features
a 20GB hard-disk drive and is, according to the company, the smallest
music player at this capacity. It measures 89 millimeters by 62.1
millimeters by 13.8 millimeters and weighs 110 grams. The capacity is
half that of Apple Computer Inc.'s highest capacity iPod, but Sony
says its player trumps Apple's in terms of the number of songs it can
store: 13,000 on the Walkman versus 10,000 on the iPod.

Walkman? That's So 1980s
Walkman? That's So 1980s
08/09/2004 11:15 AMI am not sure why Sony -- and a lot of other people -- thinks that the
Walkman is such a great brand name. To me, the brand Walkman means
casette-tape player. Big, bulky, and sequential access to my tunes. In
fact, if I am not wrong, Sony's portable CD-player was marketed under
the name Discman.
So, I am not entire sure there's wisdom in
re-using the brand Walkman in Sony's latest MP3... er, well, digital
music player.
Sony XDR-M1 DAB FM WALKMAN
Sony XDR-M1 DAB FM WALKMAN
06/22/2005 01:58 AM
People are saying that
terrestrial radio is dead, but don't believe them. They're crazy and
they smell. DAB&md
ash;a digital radio standard popular with people "in other countries,"
if we're to believe the media—is very cool and could possibly
improve our general listening experience. However, it is not readily
available here yet. That said, Sony has introduced a line of portable
DAB players including the XDR-M1.
This digital radio has 40 preset stations and an FM tuner in areas
that don't have DAB reception. Now, if they could give us DAB over
here instead of non-stop commercials for Trimspa, perhaps I'd turn on
my radio every once in a while.
