EASY LISTENING WITH SONY’S WALKMAN

08/08/2007 by john.

The super stylish, compact new MP3 WALKMAN® NWD-B100 Series from Sony enables you to enjoy your favourite tunes anytime, anywhere with its easy-to-use functions and fuss-free music transfer.

Ideal for even the most committed technophobe, the new WALKMAN® cleverly connects directly to your PC or mini hi-fi system through a USB port, allowing you to ‘drag and drop’ your music files onto your WALKMAN® with no hassle. When attached to your PC, the NWD-B100 will automatically search and copy across MP3 and WMA files in your ‘My Music’ folder. For extra convenience, the WALKMAN® will also re-charge its battery through the USB port when connected to your computer.

The need for a PC and complicated software is eliminated as the NWD-B100 can connect straight to your micro hi-fi or mini audio system and allows you to record files straight from your music collection.

The NWD-B100 packs a huge amount of great functions into its small shell to give you a hassle free experience when transferring and listening to your favourite digital music files. To ensure the WALKMAN® is always up to date with all your latest tunes, the smart built-in software automatically transfers most recently added tracks from your PC.

Once all your favourite tunes have been added to your WALKMAN®, the cleverly designed functions allow you to easily search your collection by File/Folder or Song/Album/Artist name using the bright, easy-to-read 3-line colour LCD display.

The compact new WALKMAN® weighs just 30g and comes in two fashionable chrome colours; black and white, ensuring it will match any music lover’s style. The NWD-B100 also comes supplied with top quality, in ear headphones.

The 1GB NWD-B103/B103F can store up to 660 songs* while the 2GB NWD-B105/105F boosts this to an incredible 999 songs* allowing you to store all of your favourite music onto this compact player. The 6-mode equalizer and superb playback quality also ensures you always experience the ultimate crisp and clear music experience.

In addition, the NWD-B103F/B105F versions come with a built-in FM tuner, enabling you to record your favourite radio shows and listen to them whenever you please. The new series also comes with a useful in-built microphone and voice recorder to record audio.

The WALKMAN® NWD-B100 Series will be available in the UK from August 2007 and will be available to pre order at www.sonystyle-europe.com

Blog owners can now offer NanoScan, Panda Software’s new online virus scanner, to their readers. To do this, all they need to do is send an email to partners@nanoscan.com and ask for the code, which they can simply copy and paste on their web pages.

They can also include up-to-date stats on computers infected worldwide thanks to NanoScan’s Infex. Bloggers can choose between two options: offer data for the country the visitors come from, or show information for the country chosen by the blog owner.
