Sony’s Walkman Range Welcomes the B170 MP3 Player

MP3 players might not be all that popular in today’s world, but this hasn’t sopped Sony from adding some new models to its Walkman range with the B170-series devices.

Available with both 2GB and 4GB of storage space, these colorful Walkman’s weight just 28 grams, but despite their small size they can deliver a whopping 18 hours of playback time without requiring a recharge.

Furthermore, Sony has also thought about those of you in a hurry and added to the player a special charging mode that requires the MP3 player to be recharged for only 3 minutes for delivering 90 minutes of music.

Other features include a built-in equalizer, a voice recording option, and an USB port, all being topped by a special ZAPPIN function that previews a snatch of each track until you find the music you like (stop this by pressing the ZAP button again).

Sadly, pricing wasn’t announced yet, but the B170-series should arrive later this month.
