Subjective, yes. But I, for one, can't wait to slide my 3.5 mm plug into that beautiful brass cylinder. 

 

 

Ahem....excuse me?

no doubt owners will notice that the screen resolution wasn't carried over from the prototype.

 

Spill the beans already.  Did Sony decide to upgrade to better screen?

Looking forward to your thoughts, Rudi. Even though I have the F886....i'm a little jealous !

I wonder if Sony Japan took help from Sony Mobile division regarding the implementation on Android on this device ?
The Swedish based Sony division are in the front line of Android knowledge with the Xperia series smartphones.

So long as it works smoothly, I guess it doesn't matter which division did the implementation (no offence intended to those that worked on it).
 
Hopefully, we'll have some 'first impressions' of comparisons with other DAPs within the next 24-72 hrs (in English, I mean).

This looks very interesting.  For those better informed than I - will this run Android apps, for instance MOG?  Thanks in advance.

 

[moetore]

Yep
But keep in mind that, according to F886 users, they will drain your juices real fast.

The specs on Sony's website show 854*480. That's not the best, but it's a music player, so not fussed... (I have a first F series generation and the screen is fine...)
