I like the new swivel design for both the XB line and R line. If only they would include a semi-hard case instead of just a pouch...

With's with Sony having reasonably priced products all of a sudden this year?

At the moment the most successful part of Sony's business is the Nex camera system in fact most other areas aren't doing very well at all... they're not the commercial giant they used to be so it's probably part of their business strategy.

Ha ha. I'm too lazy to use my brain, so Google here we go!
 
But from a passthrough, they got the 3 models behind closed doors, there's a bunch of story about how they're not going for the Beats styling (I think), blah blah about iProduct thingies, blah blah angled drivers smth smth measurements. :|
 
I might go through it once again when I'm less busy.

well i don't mind if it use plastic as long it use a high quality plastic like we see in Z1000 or magnesium in MA900.
oh also hoped that the material used prone to scratch and exfoliate paint.

Looking forward to finding out more about the noise cancelling version. I really want to find a noise cancelling phone that cancels noise like the bose (or at least close) but actually sounds good. Had hopes for the MU2 but the noise cancelling isn't very good...
