Anyway, not feeling that fauxgranitewhatever finish - but knowing Sony, there will be at least a few color variations. Otherwise, sounds good. The screen should have been a bit bigger though...]]>Jan 7th 2009 10:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 10:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 12:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/
I personally love my Samsung P2. Bluetooth, great sound (though Sony takes the cake on that one), cheaper than the touch, bluetooth, and the ability to sync it with my phone! I can keep my phone in my bag and not dig everywhere for it, my P2 beeps, music stops, and I have a mic on the device itself, great for when I'm walking around the city or between classes and I don't want to shuffle everywhere, and when I'm driving.

I'm seriously considering this, if the price doesn't kill me, and if they get rid of the granite design there. It's Sony though, they'll offer a different color I'm sure. 4GB is the only thing holding me back from keeping my P2. ]]>Jan 7th 2009 4:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/- Props to the hardware buttons, but prefer my volume controls to be around the buttons for easier in pocket use
- Don't like the case
- Bigger screen on the S9
- If that's a slider thing at the top where you press on a part of it to take you to the relevant list section then it's a bit on the small side
- Personal usage thing - the headphone jack is in the wrong place, my left pocket is my dedicated DAP pocket and so having it on the right would be a pain for my wire and i'm not going to switch pockets.

On the other hand, the Home button will be a bit easier to use than the on screen M button/holding down the play/pause hardware button on the S9 and there's also in menu album art which the S9 doesn't have.]]>Jan 7th 2009 11:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/
i agree with most of what you posted. the headphone jack position doesn't matter that much to me though. i didn't read if this Sony Walkman had an accelerometer so that it switches to landscape mode or portrait mode automatically. ]]>Jan 7th 2009 11:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Jan 7th 2009 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/sony-unveils-walkman-nwz-x1000-oled-touchscreen-player/Way to ruin a product.

The marble finish is interesting, but a nice matte black would be appreciated. Sony does that quite well.
