Old man Mossberg poops on the new Sony Network Walkman NW-HD1

By Phillip Torrone

You'd almost think old man Mossberg would be a little contrarian and say that he actually liked the Network Walkman NW-HD1, Sony's new 20GB digital audio player, but besides giving it up for its excellent battery life he more or less confirms every bad thing we've been hering about it: the user interface is confusing, the fact that it only plays ATRAC3 files rather than MP3s, and Sony's spotty Connect digital download service.
