Well, it’s both! The W800i is also a 2MP digital camera and MP3/MPEG4 music player (it even comes with a CD ripping software). Daimaou will be very pleased to learn that it still uses the Memory Stick PRO Duo format! ;)"</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/w800i.jpg" /><br /><br />Well I guess the good news is that it at least supports MP3. :roll: The Walkman name used to mean something to people, but now all it means is "Memory Stick Player". :P

And wow, this is the first *cough* Memory Stink *cough* player that doesn't play ATRAC. "I can't believe that this is Sony!" :P
