topic Cheaper 64gb Walkmans...when? in Portable Audio https://community.sony.si/t5/portable-audio/cheaper-64gb-walkmans-when/m-p/267014#M1263 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I've been looking for a 64gb mp3/mp4 player for a long time now and I spotted the Walkman NWZ-A847 on amazon for £190 but it was out of stock, then someone told me there was newer touchscreen series (NWZ-A86x) but the 64gb model is £300!! Two years ago I spotted a 64gb Creative X-Fi 2 for £200, since then NAND memory cells have shrunk in size and for 64gb it would probably cost the same as 32gb a couple of years ago, also a new technology called TLC NAND allows for 50% extra capacity in each cell. So with these factors, why is there no relatively cheap Walkmans? Surely the small touchscreens can't be dramatically increasing the price of these players.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 21 Nov 2011 22:28:12 GMT yourma2000 2011-11-21T22:28:12Z Cheaper 64gb Walkmans...when? https://community.sony.si/t5/portable-audio/cheaper-64gb-walkmans-when/m-p/267014#M1263 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I've been looking for a 64gb mp3/mp4 player for a long time now and I spotted the Walkman NWZ-A847 on amazon for £190 but it was out of stock, then someone told me there was newer touchscreen series (NWZ-A86x) but the 64gb model is £300!!
