NW-WM1A- Any chance it's gets updated to include wifi and Android

I was just reading about the new portable audio players NW-WM1AM2 and the NW-WM1ZM2 and they both will have wifi and Andrlid.  Any chance Sony will release a firmware update for the prior generation of portable audio players to include these features?

 

I love my NW-WM1A but with these features it will be perfect.

Unfortunately you can't add WiFi through software updates as it relies on hardware to work.

I also can't see Sony updating older generation devices to a brand new os as some of the old hardware might have compatibility issues.
