Re: Look out Apple Ipod - Sony's back in the game!
This maybe a competitor to the iPod shuffle, but not the iPod itself.

Also Sony has in the past exaggerated about their battery life, or they give that quote based on very specific conditions that no one uses.

Like for example their hard drive based player, they claim they can store more and have more battery life then the iPod. But their claims were based on music encoded at 48kbs with their own proprietary format (AC3). No one encodes music that low.

Flash based players do have much battery life than hard drive based players.

Overall, I don't see this making much headway into a very saturated market.
