Sony NW-HD1 Now Available

The Sony Network Walkman NW-HD1is now available at the Sony online store and at J&R. Retail price is $399, which for a 20GB capacity device, really sticks out against the new 20GB iPod's $299 price.

To put it bluntly, this thing is dead in the water. It's $100 more expensive than its competitor, and although it is smaller, it doesn't even play MP3s. Sony, try again. [Via Engadget]
