Sony Walkman X-series in-depth
By Derek Fung on 11 June 2009
We take a closer look at what makes the Sony X-series Walkman both great and horribly frustrating. Now if only we could get inside the heads of Sony's pricing department.
C'mon touch me baby!
Take a look around, the profusion of iPhones and iPod Touches should tell you that touchscreens are the hottest things right now. Much hotter, in fact, than the proposed Zoolander 2.
Sony's X-series Walkman is a little late to the party, but like many latecomers it has its arms filled with gifts. In this case, built-in noise cancellation, FM radio and an OLED screen.

Sony Walkman X-series in-brief commented on 24/06/2009 11:02 Report abuse
As mch as i like flicking through all the images of this rather brief in-depth look, would it have hurt to write an article. I realise that you have written another article but calling this an in-depth piece is ridiculous. Here is a pretty picture and a couple of sentences, click, another pretty picture and a couple of sentences. 13 pages later and I realise that i could have clicked on the article that wasn't touted as in-depth and got a more in-depth look at the X-series, and all of it on one page. I'm with jianxli on the 16GB review page. This article makes me question CNet reviews, well at least those written by Fung.

Very cool Mp3 player, too bad about the Aussie price.
