Oh my gosh. It is thinner than my S730. I can't look at my X-series without thinking how fat it is now... Also the SO905i is by Sony Ericsson, not Sony. They are a seperate entity co-owned by two companies, whose headquarter is in London.

Well I'll be selling my X-series for the A840, if the NWZ makes it over here. Same S-master, OLED etc. but with buttons and a thinner profile? Count me in.

I see that Denon has continued its tradition of screwing UK customers. AMP3 has them for £139.99 (US$230), which is just absurd. Silver C710 looks sexy, but could do without that white cord.

With my IE 8, everything off Sounds great unEQ'ed.

Brilliant photography there.

Yes you can. Any USB AC adapter can work. Mine has a powerful 1000mAh output, but anything above 500mAh will do fine.

Not many here has heard the CX 300-II yet, seeing that it is a pretty new product. I can tell you that based on my own personal experience I prefer the EX082 (basically a bundled EX85) to the old CX 300. However the CX 95 is leaps an improvement over the two.

Soozieq, how are you finding the Jazz, particularly with the X?

Oh that's just simply stunning. Now why couldn't I have that instead...?

The NC20 stock phones are pretty good. Tried it the other day on the train and it worked well blocking out the rumblings. The sound quality is about similar to the EX082. Only problem, and I just discovered this bit, is it isn't compatible (physically) with other 3.5mm jacks.

My E75 review unit arrived today. Brilliant build quality with a great slide out QWERTY keyboard. Quite a bit snappier than my old and trusty E51 too! SQ is pretty good for an E-series phone. Most importantly, it comes with a 3.5mm headphone port, meaning no more stupid 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter!

A piano will only last as long if people take care of it. I have seen plenty of dead pianos, cars, guitars etc. because the owners treats them like crap. The same rule applies to headphones. Take care of it and it will serve you a long long time. Our plastic CX 300 (which my partner now uses at...

FenderP, Any chance you can capture some close up shots for us? Jealous I am. So tempted to import the NW version now... I hope the price settles down in the next couple of months. Bloody hell Sony, give us NWZ owners the NW firmware!

Drag and drop Atrac? Brilliant. Now Sony, why can't we have that?

I really dislike companies that does this. Fortunately most CS only seems to care whether the product still lies within the warranty period rather than who is the current owner. A receipt is usually more than enough, and I don't remember many stores actually printing the buyer's name on it...

Anyone here has the opportunity to listen to both 5800 and the new E75? My experience with the 5800 are limited. They do sound great with my IE 8, but because I am unfamiliar with the tracks on them I can't comment anymore other than that. Nokia is sending me a E75 review unit, which is based on...

I will be lying if I say I am not a bit concerned, but that won't stop me from heading out. In fact I'll be attending a musical in the Royal Albert Hall tomorrow evening. I do have a box of Relenza hidden in my cupboard though, but I got that years ago. Not sure if it is still viable...

ThinkPads. Built rock solid. My previous X31 was so tough I dropped it a few times with nary a crack. The harddrive did give way in the end, but that is one component that will eventually fail. It has a brilliant hinge (I sometimes carry my X61 via the screen if I am lazy) and a keyboard second...

X2. I personally found films to be a huge disappointement. I enjoyed the first, but the rest just dragged on and on.
