i own the a3000 which has a much longer battery life than the a1000; sony and nano quote similar battery lifes for the nano and a1000 so similar battery lifes could well be possible.
i am aware that you only get 35 hrs on the a3000 with atrac 48kb/s, which is unusable.
i've yet to test how long my player lasts, but i am sure it'll give me at least 20 hrs with 352kb/s
this is not meant to be some kind of sony is better than apple thread
i just wanted to make the point that the a3000 is a good machine and rarely gets a mention ion this forum,
i think it's mainly down to its none-availabilty in the US.
the line-out on the a3000 lends itself well for pocket amps,
bangraman, have you tested the sound quality on the a3000 line-out?
i'm happy with it, sounds good with my dt770s
