Better late than never with the X replacement, hopefully there might be enough time for them to incorporate hard control buttons on the top of this player as this will be a major bug bear when in pocket as I understand the "W" (Walkman button) on the side of player just lets you access playing controls on screen when in lock mode if I have read correctly from Cnet.
It looks like the body design has just been lifted from the SE Xperia Arc Android phone to me, very similar.
Also concerned about how long the battery will last for should be no less than 25 hour music playback at minimum and been Android does this mean it will allow on the go playlist, something I have missed since early HHD Walkmans a few years back.
I lastly wonder when there will be confirmation of what storage capacity's there will be for this, guessing for base entry price there will be 16gb followed by a 32 & 64gb. I suppose it is too early and wishful thinking for Sony to really deliver the first dap with 128gb flash storage on board to get a real upper hand on the market (regardless of the price that would be!)
If they get all the basics right with this machine and it sounds better than the X and new A series from what I have read this will be a serious player for Sony for the first time in a while.
Potentially drooling with anticipation of this official release & specs info and can;t help feeling Sony are going to miss something that is really going to let all the hard work on this first Android player hit a brick wall affecting possible sales.
(not a dreaded volume cap I hope!)
