Sony has introduced its new line of flash-based music players that combine style and exceptional battery power. The new NW-E Series of Walkman players is available in six colors - pink, lime green, blue, violet, silver and black. Equipped with a long battery life, the latest Sony Walkman player allows users to enjoy up to 28 hours of listening at full battery capacity. The quick-charge feature, which can provide up to three hours of playback for only three minutes of charging, works wonders for fast-paced lifestyles.

The Sony's new players can store up to 1.350 songs on the 2GB model, 685 songs on the 1GB model and 340 songs on the 512MB model at 48kbps. A built-in FM tuner lets customers listen to their favorite radio stations and remembers the most visited stations so you can easily and quickly find them. These Sony's new devices support AAC (non-DRM), MP3, WMA (non-DRM), and ATRAC music files. They are compatible with the Sony CONNECT online music service and include SonicStage CP software to import, manage and transfer music collections. Equipped with a built-in 2.0 compatible USB connector, you can link directly to a PC for faster charging and information transfers. In addition to storing music, the players can also be used as a mass storage device for saving data.

The new Walkman player's distinctive one-line OEL display accommodates both left-handed and right-handed users alike. With its ability to rotate the orientation of the display, track and title names, the time and date, plus other information can now be viewed how ever you prefer. The devices come with black or white earbud headphones. To enhance the sound, you can set the equalizer to match the type of music you are listening to or simply turn it off.
