Walkman S700 series release | もっと、音楽とひとつに

WALKMAN
NW-S706F
Sony Japan announced the new Walkman S700/S600 series, anouncing that with "clear base", "clear stereo" and built in noise canceling with better supplied headphones(S700 only), these would be provide the best sound quality in Walkman history. New features also include ATRAC advance lossless support, line in recording from any music source (eg, from your CD walkman), and FM radio tuner(S700 only). Also, as with previous Sony Walkmans, it has the "3 minute charge for 3hours play" rapid charge function and 50 hours long battery life. The new design has a metalic plastic lid on a die cast metal body, and a color OLED display which can show you the album cover art. The models include the S700 with 1,2 & 4GB varients, and the S600, which lack the FM tuner and noise canceling, in 1 & 2GB sizes.

If I have extra money, I would definitly go get one; alas, I don't have the extra dough. Also, it's a shame that thus far the iPod (which I really don't like) is still the only portable music player that truely supports the Mac.
