Sony’s Walkman NW-a910 series slakes that media jones

Nice huh? That’s the latest Walkman from Sony. However, unless you live in Japan, you can forget about using it to watch your mobile digital TV. This little pup packs a 1Seg tuner, not DMB, DVB-H, or Flo. Measuring just 86.8 × 48 × 12.3-mm, the NW-A910 series player holds up to 16GB of flash memory and a 2.4-inch, 320 x 240 pixel display. The included EPG even allows you to schedule up to 10 programs for recording up to one month in advance for up to 100 hours of MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 formatted television inside the device. As this is Japan, it still supports ATRAC in addition to non-DRMed WMA and AAC, MP3, and linear PCM audio playback with SonicStage doing the sync work back to your PC. Rounding things out are an FM tuner, direct encoding from your CD/MD player, clear audio noise canceling headphones, and a battery capable of juicing up to 6 hours of television or 36 hours of audio. The premium NW-A919/BI (pictured) will sell in November for ¥47,800 while a 4GB NW-A916 should pop for about ¥30,000 ($259).

Sony’s Vaio TP Home Theater PC

As the fusion of the Internet and television continues to evolve, new hardware has been popping up in the living room. With its circular design, Sony’s Vaio TP Home Theater PC stands out on a home entertainment shelf full of typical black and silver boxes — and brings a Blu-ray disc player, HDTV recorder and a full Windows Vista Home Premium system into the mix.

Available next month for about $3,000, this Vaio comes with 4 gigabytes of memory, a 500-gigabyte hard drive and an Intel Core 2 Duo T8100 processor. The round, black PC connects to a widescreen TV with a high-definition multimedia interface, or H.D.M.I., cable and includes a wireless keyboard for using the Web from across the room.

The PC comes with a pair of CableCARD-compatible tuners that let you record two high-definition programs at once, and its hard drive holds up to 50 hours of high-definition recordings. If the price tag seems out of reach, there’s also a white model with a single TV tuner for $1,600
