I quite like the way he reviews things, nice and slow, easy to understand, explains things well, good job.

[musashi606]

yes but IPod Nano has cheap sound considered to the walkman

I got one of those A-8xx models and it's quite a lot better than the ipods actually, now I've just tried with the included earphones, which is more than enough for me actually, but ye, I've never gotten better price-value out from any other product than this one.

Guys Any idea how I can make a Video Playlist on NWZ A816???

Still got my Sony A808. The sound quality STILL trounces any iPod out now, even with included buds (and even better with my v-moda's).

My A808 uses SonicStage (v4.3 is OK) to transfer music, but I need it as my ATRAC3plus files (192 and 256 kbps) sound stellar and plays those albums and mixes GAPLESS (MP3s play nearly gapless too). Also has on-the-go playlists, ratings and can delete music on the player.

A818 has identical hardware but loses Sonicstage, ATRAC, gapless etc but is drag and drop.

They say that NW-A806 is identical in hardware with NWZ-816 it is a pitty I cannot find a firmware upgrade and get rid of the crappy sonic stage
