How to spend way too much on Sony's new Network Walkman

Want to be the first one you know to buy Sony's new NW-HD1 Network Walkman and also the first to experience buyer's remorse? We feel even sorrier than usual for Sony now that the new, even thinner iPod has been revealed, but if you want to spend some sympathy dollars on them, at least one Japanese retailer willing to ship their new star-crossed 20GB
Network Walkman worldwide. In addition to the usual bad news that it doesn't play MP3s (you have to convert them into ATRAC3 files first), Audio Cubes is also charging a steep $569 for it, way more than we hope it costs when it finally arrives in the US.
