Sorry there is no solution, you can use alternative programs to SS like MP3FM but you cant sort by folder. I suggest you create a playlist thats the only way it will work

I am starting to think there will be an update as why would Sony Australia release the NWZ S series but not the A Series seems a bit weird

Ha the sony guy in melbourne had no clue they were even coming for six months, thanks for this though I dont know wether or not to get it from the US where it is $100 cheaper

Any one know about Australia i went to the sony store and he had no clue, didnt even know they were ditching ATRAC He thought it would be 6 - 8 months before it gets to Aus i cant wait that long

I would like it if the updated my HD5 but i dont see that happening, i can dream though

Sony Ericson is still Sony. And they do some prety decent phones if you ask me. The mylo didnt even come to australia. Dont just take sony as one department. Sony had an 8GB phone\music player with touch screen way before the iPhone. Pitty it ruins the horrid UIQ OS otherwise it would be quite good. I still like sony products even if some of you dont. Off-topic any one read the article saying Apple is becoming worse than microsoft.

It even let me play the .OMG files from my HD5 It would be good if the new players could download Atrac files because WMP can play them but i dont see this happening

Here is the video of the NWZ-S610 http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2vedj_pr...610-par-ge_tech I think i am the only one who likes it, i guess i just prefer FM Radio to good earphones as i already have some

"2) the products are being treated as the 'same' (perhaps this means a firmware upgrade isn't out of the question or am I clutching at straws?)" They are so similar that sony is forgetting about the 80x and just thinking about the 801x hoping ppl forget. I think its more of one, seeing how they treated us HD5 users i dont think it bodes well for you

I wouldnt count on it when i got my HD5 they released the NWA with WMA soon after, the a800 is discountinued so that means you get nothing. Sony is not good with old customers only new ones

Didnt mean for my comments to destroy AtracLife. Hope your new site will be good

I am soooo glad i didnt get the NWA-800 I am going to get this instead http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores...552921665224916 FM Radio is what i allways wanted

Only the players that end with F will have an FM tuner eg (NWZ -S615F) Like the one in this photo http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1167/125307...0feec74.jpg?v=0

"As an aside: man, Sony really have to something about those names - couldn't this just be the Video Walkman 2?" Sony like confusing names, NWA-810 sounds better to them than Video Walkman (not 2 becuase its the first one to the US) I agree though it would do wonders for their marketing team if people could actually say the name. I have a NW-HD5 and i just say walkman because no one knows what i am talking about otherwise

Funny first they do iPod docks and now support WMA, it does seem like they have lost their way a bit. But lets hope they come out with better devices and keep Atrac as lots of people like it

It seems it still uses the WM-Port i thought it would use mini-usb I still like the it supports more formats, i think if it was 16GB i would be happy. All we can do is wait

Rumors are abound of new walkmans coming out and here is something to back it up, maybe its only for the asian countries but i sure hope it comes my way. USB and FM radio seems like a dream, now if it has a normal ac adapter and maybe even a remote jack then this is the next device for me. http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/28/sony-pr...es-of-walkmans/ ------------ A bit more rumor mongering for ya. The NWZ-A series will launch in 2, 4, and 8GB models in black, white, silver, and pink (8GB is black-only). The NWZ-S series includes an FM tuner. Both support USB Mass Storage with an announcement as early as Friday and will offer 18 hours of video / 33 hours

Thanks for the reply, but you miss the point i want to know what happened to all the walkman related news articles on the front page

Sorry to say this but where has all the information gone relating to walkmans, DAPreview has more walkman news than you. You posed a story awhile ago talking about the NWA-800 but never followed up on it. I thought stories such as "Sony PMX-U50 Hands-On" would be good front page info or even the mysterious new "egg-shaped" walkman. So can someone tell me when we will see some walkman news on the front page or something besides Playstation 3 or PSP news PS: http://www.pmptoday.com/2007/08/08/sony-pm...rives-in-china/ for info about the PMX-u50

Funny you mention "high end" 8GB for $499 is high end enough for me. After all the best products are made when there is alot of competition

I would like on based on the HD5, which is still my main mp3, with a 3" colour screen, fm radio, xvid support and drag n drop that would be great. I dont really need wifi but bluetooth would be great or built-in fm tuner

MP3FM works fine for me, works good on vista even GYM works on vista I avoid SS, just wanted something light

you got me excited, u though you were going to say they had the nwa808 also

Well i tried to find it everywhere, besides on the sony website, its a ghost i might go to sony central today but there is noway i am paying $499

I cant even find an AC adapter or the bluetooth for it, i am soo close to buying it but the price has to be right
