Sony WH-CH510 Wireless Headset revealed by FCC


Another pair was revealed by the FCC, the Sony WH-CH510.  The design has changed into a more rounded and softer look than the previous model the WH-CH500.  Almost everything has changed in design apart from maybe the ear cushions but this is difficult to tell from the FCC photos.

Sony WI-XB400 revealed in FCC documents


The upcoming WI-XB400 has been revealed by the FCC. The design is simple yet light and compact.  The reference guide does provide some new information like the inclusion of Bluetooth 5.0, USB type C port and battery life of up to 15 hours with a charge time of 3 hours.  There is no mention of water/dust protection, so I would not bet on it.

Sony Walkman Celebrates 40 Years


The Sony Walkman is celebrating 40 years this year.  The first ever Walkman was introduced back in 1979 on July 1st.  I remember my first Walkman, it was a discman, the D-EJ925, loved using the inline remote, was a great feature.  My next device was a MD walkman, the MZ-N10.  Eventually I moved onto the first A1000 and A3000 models and slowly into the A-Series, ending on the my current NW-A10.  I have collected others along the way and will keep collecting as many as I can.

So what was your first Walkman, share your comments and memories below.
