Review: Sony NW-A3000
Object of desire; very good sound quality with proper earphones; good battery life...Expensive; heavy; sub-par music library interaction; scratch-prone...Sharing the stylish looks of the NW-A1000, the Sony NW-A3000 steals the attention wherever it goes...Those not in need of fancy multimedia features but rather decent music playback and good looks will find the NW-A3000...
