p2pnet.net News:- The mp3 player wars continue.

Sony is now selling its first Walkman mp3-compatible flash memory digital music players in a bid to turn back time.

Sony’s Walkmen were once the music players. Of course, that was before mp3.

Sony’s Walkman 1 gig flash drive NW-E99 and NW-E95 carry suggested retail prices of about $300 while the NW-E95 holds a 512 mb costs about $250.

"While they are more pricey than the iPod Mini in euro terms and have smaller music storage capacity, the new Walkman devices have 70 hours of battery life and can hold 46 CDs worth of music," says Reuters

We’d rather have a RetroPod.
