Sony NW-A3000V 20 GB HDD Walkman MP3 Player - Violet

Chic, compact and lightweight, the Sony NWE005BC flash memory MP3 Walkman is rich in functions, with a battery life of up to 28 hours for non-stop music wherever you go! With built-in USB key for easy file transfer. If this wasn't enough, it takes a mere three minutes to charge in order to enjoy up to three hours of playback. So plug it in, make a cup of tea and your new E Series is ready to entertain you for the next three hours. For a full charge, the E Series only needs two hours.

The brand new Sony MP3 WALKMAN is the most cutting-edge yet, combining high-end design with ease-of-use and advanced functionality which seriously upgrades your listening experience. The 20GB NW-A3000 has space for up to 13,000 songs with up to 35 hours battery life and is made from a futuristic translucent material, sexy to the touch and gorgeous to look at. As it comes to life, the luminescent Organic EL display lights up. The three buttons make operating the player a cinch. Naturally, because it’s a Sony, the audio quality is impeccable.

Whether you’ve owned an MP3 player before or you’re new to them, you’ll find the new WALKMAN so simple to use. Just like a mobile phone, the display features nine navigational icons on the home menu from which you can manoeuvre up, down, left and right to search, shuffle and access all your favourite tracks. The search method is much simpler to use than other players as it’s easy to jump straight to the artist, album or song via their initials, rather than scrolling up and down a long list.

The WALKMAN features a revolutionary new ARTIST LINK function. This means that if you’re listening to an artist or track and you press the artist link button the new WALKMAN will search, find and display similar artists in that genre. What’s more, you can also choose how to ‘shuffle’. By selecting ‘My Favourite Shuffle’, the device automatically selects the most listened to 100 songs and plays them at random. The ‘Time Machine Shuffle’ function randomly selects a year and plays all of the songs from that particular year that are currently held on the device.

The WALKMAN will be accompanied by a whole range of design-matching accessories; a stylish remote control for easier navigation, various carrying cases, a docking station for convenient connection with the PC, as well as a docking speaker system giving the option to connect to a PC (data sync) and play music through the speakers

CONNECT Compatible
The WALKMAN comes complete with brand new software called "CONNECT Player". This software is necessary to store, transfer and update all your tracks on your PC. And with the CONNECT music downloads fully integrated into this software, it’s easy to go on-line and download tracks from the Sony music service.

CONNECT lets you access hundreds of thousands of tracks from old favourites to brand new cuts – and even more independent music that’s usually harder to find. It also gives you access to the latest news, reviews and biographies, so there’s plenty to keep you amused... All in all, the WALKMAN offers you the next level in MP3 players, combining the cutting-edge design you love with the sound quality and ease-of-use you demand.
