  Sony NW-A806
  By Paul Lester
  
  Review summary: Sony's NW-A806, despite adopting a similar design to the iPod Nano, offers enough to suggest it is taking video content seriously with a large 2in high resolution display. You'll find a decent range of features here that combine audio, photo and video ...
  
  Pros: Excellent display, great audio performance, slimline design
  
  Cons: Poor support for drag and drop, limited format support

  Sony NW-A806 Walkman Review - MP3 Players
  By Derek Fung
  
  Review summary: sony nw-a806 walkman review: Were it not for crazy pricing, the A806 would've walked it in for an Editors' Choice award. As it is, it's still a great nano competitor with sound Apple would kill for and video playback to boot.
  
  Pros: Sound quality impressive, Looks the goods, All metal body more delectable than it looks, Brilliant screen great for photos and videos ...
  
  Cons: ... but let down by dour colour scheme, Interface has some kinks, PC software still pretty rubbish, Price
  
  Verdict: Were it not for crazy pricing, the A806 would've walked it in for an Editors' Choice award. As it is, it's still a great nano competitor with sound Apple would kill for and video playback to boot.

  Sony Walkman NW-A805
  By Ross Catanzariti
  
  Pros: Design, user interface, controls, excellent equaliser and sound settings, included EX monitor headphones
  
  Cons: Price, reliance on poor SonicStage software, location of hold switch
  
  Verdict: The NW-805 comes with a hefty price tag, but if you can overlook the reliance on SonicStage, this is a fine portable media player with an excellent design and good sound quality.
