The product launch, which marks the 25th anniversary of the introduction of the Walkman, could pose a serious challenge to Apple's (Nasdaq: AAPL) iPod in the digital music player market.

Apple Music Player for Phones

Reuters reports a deal between Apple and Motorola to bring iTunes-like capability to mobile phones. Steve Jobs is quoted as saying, "Wouldn't it be great if you could take a dozen of your favorite songs with you on your phone. We thought it would be great if together Motorola and Apple could give them (consumers) a small taste of what this digital music revolution is about." Many of us have already done this. I do it every time I travel with my Treo 600 phone, as I noted in this column a few days ago. Except I have an advantage: I'm using MP3 files, which aren't subjected to Apple's version of Digital Restrictions Management that prevent me from using what I've purchased the way I want to use it. Most phones will soon have enough onboard memory for this kind of thing. Users want access to their music, but they don't want DRM speed bumps. I hope Apple and Motorola don't build them in.

Apple and HP have announced a partnership for a "HP-branded digital music player based on Apple's iPod." Part of the deal is that iTunes will be shipped on every HP computer (with an icon on the desktop), which should boost sales from the iTunes Music Store. Look for the new player this summer. Thoughts?

Sony Claims Humanoid Robot First

Sony Claims Humanoid Robot First 12/18/2003 11:48 AM
A press release from Sony claims they have developed the world's first fully autonomous humanoid robot with internal power and control that is capable of running. The robot is an upgraded version of the Sony QRIO, a robot we've seen before. The robot uses a control theory called Zero Moment Point (ZMP) and in addition to running is capable of other extreme motion that involves one or both feet leaving the ground such as jumping. Additional photos of QRIO in action can be found on the Japanese PC Watch site. There's also a Slashdot discussion about QRIO.

Sony SCD-DR1 Super Audio CD Player

Sony SCD-DR1 Super Audio CD Player 08/13/2004 11:04 AM

Sony's new "SCD-DR1" Super Audio CD/Audio CD player is apparently the pinnacle of high quality audio playback - or at least we hope so with its $11,000 price tag. Sporting audio interfaces you probably haven't heard of, such as the "High Quality Digital Audio Transmission System," the player can output using optical, coaxial, balanced digital, and even i.Link (Sony's FireWire flavor) ports. The latter should help you with those 200Mbps Super Audio CD DSD (Direct Stream Digital) transfers.

Sounds expensive. Oh, that's right, it is expensive. Let's hope you get what you pay for.

Sony MZ-NH600 Hi-MD Player Reviewed

Sony MZ-NH600 Hi-MD Player Reviewed 06/30/2004 09:23 AM

Sony's new Hi_MD MiniDisc players are creeping onto the market, and while most of us have passed over MiniDisc for bigger and presumably better things, the Hi-MD will let proponents of the standard eke along for a while longer, with 1GB of storage per disc and up to 45 hours of music at the lowest, crappiest compression rate. I don't feel like I have to throw up a bunch of MiniDisc disclaimers at this point -- if you're interested in the new low-end Sony MZ-NH600 player, for instance, you probably already know what you're getting into. Australian IT has the review, and except for the overly complicated 5-way controls, they give the plastic player a generally passing grade.
