Sony Announces NW-HD2
Sony has just announced (machine translation here) a new version of its Network Walkman, the NW-HD2. As far as we can tell, it's no different from the older NW-HD1 except that the new model comes in three colors (silver, pink and blue) and seems to be missing the LCD remote of the NW-HD1.
Physically the Network Walkmen are impressive specimens: sleek looking, very small and have a 30 hour battery life. However, they're expensive and still don't play MP3s. Playing MP3s being an important feature of devices widely known as MP3 players. [Via i4u]
