OK, so I decided I want to buy a docking station for my Walkman NWZ-S764 - and was browsing around Dubai Mall. I don't want to buy a stand-alone HiFi system as I want to keep things compact.
So there's a Sony shop in Dubai Mall and I went in thinking that, of all place,s I should be able to find what I'm looking for here. But no. Sony don't make a dedicated docking station for their Walkman range of personal MP3/4 players. They do make Alarm Clock docking stations but I just want a decent set of speakers, without cables, for my Walkman, not an alarm clock added in. But they DO make one that's compatible with iPod...!
Isn't that just a bit strange? Why are Sony promoting, indeed ENCOURAGING me to go and buy an iPod and discard my Walkman?? Isn't it time Sony and other audio manufacturers woke up to the possibility that not EVERYONE is a slave to Apple's i-this and i-that...!?
