The Washington Post have published a review of the new Sony X-Series Walkman. 'The X-Series Walkman has a lot of surprising design choices, such as the tactile hardware playback buttons on the top edge of the player. It is uncommon for touchscreen players to have physical volume rockers (iPod Touch, I'm looking at you), much less actual hardware playback buttons. But I found them handy, especially when I was digging around in my bag, searching for the player so I could skip to the next song. The X-Series also has a large hold switch on its back--a refreshing change from the tiny, inconveniently-placed switches I've seen on other players.'
