NEW Sony Walkman Z Series mini review!!!

It hurts my eyes to see stuff like this.

I noticed in your pics, the Z barely fits the case. It's a really tight fit. The upper edge definitely sticks out of the enclosure making it more prone to damages. I dont see this with the 2nd case I mentioned (flip style). The Z fits loosely and the edges are well protected in the case.
 
I posted a PDAIR case with my Sony A865 in the current rig section. It's spacious and doesnt wabble within. The upper 'tag' secures the player. Also I use this A walkman for running inside an arm band for ipod. Its for me the best Sony walkman ever!
 
I havent yet posted a pic of my Z (that would be too much of a show-off for now)

I use the 1st type of PDAIR case with my Z1070.  I actually like the craftsmanship but buyer should beware that the case doesn't do a good enough job of protecting the top corners as well as the bottom right corner of the unit. However, it did a great job projecting the screen and frontal of the unit though.  
 
Pictures below illustrate that the PDAIR case didn't do a good enough job protecting my Z when I dropped it against the ceramic floor.  Notice a dent located at the bottom right of my Z after my incident and a paint chipped located at the top right corner.

I got this case / skin from another head-fi member who was selling it awhile back and it's quite nice.
 

 
 

 
Since I can't find another one of these for sale, I'm gonna try this case for my brother's Walkman Z:

I also have that case but found it to be some what slippery, so I went with PDair case.  No perfect case really.

anyone know weather bluetooth speakers such as the jambox are supported. i'm having trouble pairing my jambox speaker with my walkman z which is running ics 4.0.4.
 
i was supposed to hold the power button up for like 5 seconds untill the led notification turned red.

Hi, apologies if this has been answered already but how does the Z series compare to the A865?
 
I bought the A865 6 months ago based on the fact that it was reviewed as one of the best sounding disgital player but I didnt find it much better than my smartphones.
 
Is the Z series night and day better or is it similar?
 
Dont want to buy this if it isnt going to be a massive improvement over the A865.  I sent my A865 back.
 
Just want to do my Beyer T5p and Westone UM3x some justice,

If you have the European A, then that may explain it.  I found the US & Jap A walkman to sound wonderful.

I have an A as well and a Z, and I am constantly trying to make my Z sound like the A lol.  Yeah if I could find a huge capacity A then I would sell my Z no question.
The thing with the A is that it has a real punch to the sound without the fatigue.

i think the nwz-1000 is the 8gb model while the nwz-1070 might be either the 16gb or the 32gb version.

"NW-Z10x0" = Japanese market Z walkman.
"NWZ-Z10x0" = Z walkman sales else where.
 
Z1040 = 8 GB model
Z1050 = 16 GB model
Z1060 = 32 GB model
Z1070 = 64 GB model

Nice.  The key is will it feature 128 GB storage and most importantly....S-Master Pro MX sound technology?
