Too expensive.

Unless the sound quality maybe rivals my older Cowon S9, but I doubt it.

I already have a 32gb Android MP3 player with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. It called a phone and it was a hell of alot cheaper than that. Before anyone says you still have a monthly bill you dont have to. I got one of my kids and old droid with no service to use as an Mp3 player and it works just fine. You can even shut down the radio so its not using up unnecessary battery life.

True, I bought an LG Chocolate Touch (VX8575) from ebay for $15 and it is an awesome mp3 player. Plus, the sound quality of the LG, which has built in Dolby Mobile, is far better than my $200 ipod.

What is the deal? Is Sony losing money somewhere, or do they think the "new"er PS3 is going to fail that badly?

Why would anyone who has a modern smartphone pay $270-300 for this?

why not cater to the market who want players with large amounts of storage? 128GB in something like this and I would be all over it. As it stands i can just use my phone.
