New Sony 64 GB DAP: NW-A840
Oct 2, 2009 at 6:57 PM Post #106 of 209
The more I use my X, the more I realize I can't go back to a click the button interface. I know touch screens are love it/hate it propositions. If I'm in Japan in December and Sony somehow issues a 64GB version of the X, I'm all over it ...

I think touch UI allows you to scroll music faster if you have a big collection. I have about 2600 songs so far on my Sony X and i can navigate to any song or album faster. On my A729 it was click click or click and hold to scroll.

I would love a 16GB X for $200 that doesn't come w/ headphones, NC, or a browser. And I'm in complete agreement w/ you guys about flicking back and forth to navigate between files. It's so much easier and efficient than clickity click.

I am so freakin angry at Sony....what's wrong with them??? why don't they release it here in Canada or in the US???

I love Sony's sound quality...one month ago I bought Sony's S540 and it sounds just AWESOME but then it started getting scratches all over the body since the screen is 2.4 inch...

so a few days ago had to switch to ipod touch because no matter what you do u can never get any scratches on it... I won't lie, I love my ipod touch but the sound quality sucks biggg timeee compared to Sony's mp3 players..

I wish the X series was around $200 even if it had only 4 gb....because I like touch screen now...I wud really buy it...

They wont even release this new S or A series in the US or Canada...I want Sony's sound quality sooo>>> Sony launch it in Canadaaaa...I want to return my ipod touch and get the new A or S seriessss

First, put the Sony in a case. Second, you've gotta' be kidding!!!!! The iPod Touch is a scratch MAGNET!!!! The screen is glass, making it harder to scratch, but it's not as tough as you say. And like I said, get a case for the Sony, it's not a touch screen player.

will this work on a mac computer?
I just checked the price on amazon japan and the price for the 64GB is 35000yen (about $350). have family there so I can get it and then shipped to the US.

Someone on youtube posted an unboxing of the player if you guys want to look it up.

Greetings from Tokyo

Just picked up the 16 Gb version (my listening habits don`t require anything bigger) and for me it is a big step up in SQ from my S639F. The only downside is it is much more revealing of poorly recorded material than the 639F which has made some stuff that was listenable on that player unlistenable on this one for me on both my E3C and CKS70 IEMs.

LevA: drag and drop for both video and music works just fine on a mac. Just drop your songs folder into the walkman`s music folder. The Amazon price you mentioned is pretty good but you can do a little better than that. You can monitor the best prices here ‰口口i.com - WALKMAN(口E口H口[口N口}口“)口口MP3口v口口口[口口口[ 口口口i口口口口 as there as been a little downward movement.

a_tumiya: The menus are pretty straight forward and relatively few in number. The players come with a pdf manual installed with snapshots of all the menus. By copying the Jpn text and menu commands to here: WWWJDIC: Word Search will give you a pretty accurate translation.

Hope this helps!

There is no point in ordering one from Japan as all the menu options and such are in Japanese. It will however display English ID3 tags just fine.
