Sony jumps into the High Definition camcorder fray with a trio of new models, namely the HDR-CX7, the HDR-SR7, and the HDR-SR5. All three models come with 2.7″ LCD displays, Sony’s very own ClearVid CMOS sensor technology, Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T optics, and Sony’s x.v.Color technology. Recording is done in the AVCHD format while a high speed USB 2.0 connection works great for editing and backup purposes, although I would’ve liked to see FireWire used instead since it is much faster. Only the HDR-CX7 ($1,200) uses a Memory Stick Pro card for storage, while the HDR-SR7 ($1,400) and HDR-SR5 ($1,100) come with 60GB and 40GB hard drives respectively.

Looks like Sony has finally learnt from its mistake with the introduction of the B100 music player. The B100 is tipped to be the first Walkman digital audio player that uses drag-and-drop song transfer, doing away with the convoluted method of using SonicStage whenever you want to synchronize music. Even more shocking is the news of Sony dropping the ATRAC format, relying instead on support for MP3, unprotected WMA, and possibly AAC. The B100 will come with an integrated FM tuner with recording capability, and is touted to be available in 1GB, 2GB, and 4GB capacities at a yet undisclosed price. With this turnabout in mind, will such a lesson see Sony handle the PS3 issue in a more positive manner?

Looking to build a home theatre that’ll rival going to the actual movies? Why not get the same projector fancy theatres install? Sure, it’ll cost you, but won’t it…

Eureka! I’ve figured out why Sony’s Playstation 3 isn’t doing that well! There’s just not an expensive enough model out there. Yep, the $600 version with a 60 GB…

The Sony NAC-HD1 is a new breed of home audio systems that plays back uncompressed digital audio with panache, thanks to its 250GB hard drive that offers ample space for your digital music collection. That space is large enough to hold approximately 380 full HiFi albums. The NAC-HD1 can encode audio from a CD or DVD in an uncompressed linear PCM format on-the-fly, and additional features include a 4.3″ color display, a one-touch button for file transfer to a connected portable audio player, and a copy of Gracenote’s CDDB album database. You have the option of throwing in a WiFi adapter to keep the information in the database current. Too bad it takes around an hour to copy a CD over to the hard drive without any compression. The NAC-HD1 will hit Japan this May 21st for approximately $890.

What you see here is apparently a leaked photo of the Sony Ericsson W970 Walkman cellphone, and while the photo reeks of a Photoshop job, there could be some truth behind this conjured image. For starters, it will probably come with the switchblade design found on the Sony Ericsson W900, and we are speculating it will feature 512MB of internal memory, a Memory Stick slot of some kind somewhere, and a video recording capable digital camera to complete the package. There is no word from Sony Ericsson on the W970 to date, so we’ll just have to grind it out for an official announcement.
