does it have widgets, radio, accelerometer?

[WhichWebsite]

Yes it does have widgets, yes it does have a radio but no it doesn't have an accelerometer, most things are done vertically but video is shown horizontally

SONY X Wins easily it's like liverpool beating wigan 5-0

@1ohtaf1 It won't the Walkman never will. Unless Sony bring a a solid line up or just one unique player and advertise it like mad.

[1ohtaf1]

@Dr23rippa well i dont really see this out selling the touch soo...

[1ohtaf1]

@ShitAndLobster But the question is do you really notice? Most people with MP3 players dont go out lashing on really good earphones and usually only listen with one earpiece in anyway so this might appeal to some but not really noticeable for the masses.

@xdirtyburtyx Im not sure if they are starting to do better but they dont seem to be really "comming back".
