what about those walkman's

what division is that

I mean the standalone walkmans

 

Do they even make those anymore?  I thought the Ipod and Zune pretty much took over that line of gadgets.

Do they still make those? Surely it's under Electronics (as most of Sony is).

Well in case it wasn't communicated in the other thread:

Shit.

Oh, funny. I don't pay much attention to these things, but I never noticed Sony sold digital music players.

Apparently back in Aug 2007 they were aiming for 10% market share:

The iPod had 79% of marketshare back in 2006, don't know how it's doing now but I'm guessing not much worse.

Looks like it is pretty nice, but I think I will keep my ipod.  It has to many different accessories that I can buy for it.  I am happy Sony still makes something with a name from my childhood in it.  If you had a Sony Walkman Cassette player back when I was in grade school you were one cool mf'er!

This is a terrible rumor regardless of what kind of "fanboy" you are.



@khuutra

how would you honestly feel if the PS brand is indeed canned?...And if that happens, how do you expect things to go in the industry over the next years?
