Sony to Release Digital Walkman

Posted by Hemos on from the joining-the-fray dept.

ari{Dal} writes "Sony has revealed plans for a new digital walkman for the Japanese market. " Not quite a Rio or Nomad, it will take Sony's Memory Flash Stiks, like the Vaio and Aibo. It can play the Sony proprietary musical format, as well as encrypt and play MP3s or Wavs.

    It looks like sony is looking for a product to use their memory sticks cince noone else will use them. I'm waiting for a mp3 player that uses a pcmcia slot so I can slap my Clik drive in there (Ok a CF slot will work, as they have an adaptor for that now.)

    What would be great is a device that will record in stereo mp3... that way I can compress all meeting thoughts into nice snippets that I can play on the computer.
