Sony’s first Walkman DVD player
Portable is all the rage and Sony is weighing in with
a very sleek portable DVD player called the D-VE7000S,
the first DVD player badged as a Walkman.
About the size of a DVD case, this
DVD player has been previewed recently and will launch in the US this month for around £130. At this early stage there is no UK launch date, but it's very likely this will be winging its way over here this summer although you can expect it to cost more like £150. Designed to playback DVDs
and CDs, the unit also supports the new
dual layer DVD+RW discs. It weighs 775g, has a 7in screen, dual headphone support and a three-hour battery life. There’s a slightly
bigger brother,
the DVP-FX810, with an 8in screen that swivels 180 degrees and is designed for keeping the nippers in the back of the car quiet. Battery life is a far better six hours and it is also priced at around £130.
