I have a nwz-a815 and i love it, The only thing is the earphones that came with it had short cord, I hope the new ones are longer.

Is there any chance that Sony releases a firmware update for previous walkman generations? I have a NWZ-S615F and the device is great, but it would be nice to have other features like teh podcast management or the interface customization.

These players are only available with 8GB maximum? You've got to be kidding me....good luck Sony, I like the looks, but if it doesn't have at least 32GB it's worthless.

Yea that realy annoys me when they bring out all these great players but with a realy low capacity. I want all my music on an mp3 player not 1/4 of it! I suppose its because flash drives are relatively new still, and eventually we will see bigger capacity flash mp3 player capacities. Oh well, looks like im gona have to stick with my iriver h340 for a few more years yet!

Wow, they're very nice looking, as Sony's usual. Quite a rack of new features, also. The "noise-cancelling module" will be quite handy, to me.

Seems that Sony is finally putting it's Walkman act together. Born as an ugly duckling, but shaping up into something quite nice.

BTW, when you guys put up the reviews, can you please group up the all the reviews for the same model line? I mean, look at the A810 line - you've got one review for each color and capacity, and the user reviews get all scattered. Make a main review and list the specific model number/name for each color/capacity there.

Too bad Sony doesn't know how to create a media software for their players!

It uses Content Transfer as the Media Manager is outdated and does NOT recognized the newer player versions! WMV S*CKS! Who uses that anyway??!!

Drag n drop is NOT a GOOD option! No playlist or album art support if using that option!

Who does NOT listen to music compilations?

Sony makes good hardware but, historically, still can NOT make media software to save itself!
