Sony Taiwan late last week unveiled two new Sony HDD (hard disk drive)-based MP3 players, the NW-A1000 and NW-A3000, for launch in the Taiwan market in mid-January 2006.
A recommended retail price is not yet available.
The two models feature the Sony-developed Artist Link, a function for intelligently managing users’ favorite songs by systematically sorting them in terms of style and singer and then enabling users to easily pick songs similar to the one they are listening to, according to the company, adding that the Connect Player software enables drag-and-drop transfer of music files between the player and a PC.
