Swing to that Sony beat

Edvarcl Heng | Aug 14, 2006

Pass the baton, somebody. That G-Sensor technology from Sony has finally made the jump. Previously used to protect hard drives in the NW series of hard drive MP3 players, the Japanese firm is now making use of it as a pedometer in the NW-S200 series. Able to detect the pace of your run, this cylindrical MP3 player will play preset playlists according to your speed. Shuffling like a crab? Sexy Kylie Minogue's Slow may perk you up. Dawdle further and don't be surprised when your MP3 player starts to hum The Recital's Song for the Slowest Clocks.

The NW-S203F (1GB) and the NW-S205F (2GB) will be available in Asia Pacific by September. Prices will differ from country to country. Read more here
