    Sony Audio: Sony's OLED Walkman coming April 25th to Japan, starts at $400 for 16GB
    Posted by claudio on Monday, April 27, 2009 @ 12:24:03 EDT (1317 reads)
    Sony Walkman Series Forget about Amazon UK's variable estimations, Sony's gone ahead and given us official Japanese release details for its OLED-equipped NWZ-X1000 series Walkman -- known there without the "Z" but with an one-seg TV tuner. Street date is April 25 and the open price is 40,000 yen (US $400) for the 16GB NWZ-X1050 and 50,000 yen for the 32GB NWZ-X1060. Both models will be available in black or red. No word yet on US or Europe date, but we can't imagine those will be far behind.

    Several pictures of the New OLED walkman including pictures side by side vs the iTouch in the full article.

    Sony Audio: Sony’s new budget AV receivers packed with features
    Posted by claudio on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 @ 23:53:58 EST (3282 reads)
    Sony Audio Components Series When Onkyo released the budget TX-SR605 AV receiver last year, it rocked the industry with its low price and high-end features such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-Master Audio decoding. Other manufacturers pretty much had to stay on the sidelines as TX-SR605s flew off the shelf, but it looks as if Sony is ready to fight back with its new line of budget AV receivers. The company’s 2008 line of AV receivers includes four new affordably priced models–the STR-DG520, STR-DG720, STR-DG820 and STR-DG920–and they look pretty good from the spec sheet.

    Here are the details and pictures of the new receivers.
