Touch Screen Player : Sony NW-A919
Saturday, October 13, 2007
Latest Walkman from Sony, NW- A919. It’s holds up to 16GB of flash memory and a 2.4-inch, 320 x 240 pixel display. The device measures approximately 86.8 × 48 × 12.3-mm and still supports ATRAC in addition to non-DRMed WMA and AAC, MP3, and linear PCM audio playback with SonicStage doing the sync work back to your PC. If you don’t live in Japan, then there’s no point in using this device. It only has a 1Seg tuner, not DMB, DVB-H, or Flo.
The premium NW-A919/BI (pictured) will sell in November for ¥47,800 while a 4GB NW-A916 should pop for about ¥30,000 ($9). Rounding things out are an FM tuner, direct encoding from your CD/MD player, clear audio noise canceling headphones, and a battery capable of juicing up to 6 hours of television or 36 hours of audio.
