Sony has come a long way since its cassette Walkman

Sony has joined the likes of Creative and Apple and launched its own video MP3 player.

The Sony NWZ-A820 Walkman range has a 2.4in screen and is Bluetooth enabled, meaning songs can be streamed from any Bluetooth stereo or PC.

The NWZ-A828 8GB stores 30 hours 40 minutes of video or 1,850 songs. The NWZ-A826 4GB can store up to 15 hours of video or 925 songs.

Both come with Bluetooth wireless headphones and have a battery life of 10 hours video playback or 36 hours of music playback. They will be available from April.
