Sony have outed a new firmware release for their Walkman X PMP, and the headline feature is an improved browsing experience. The new software tweaks the NetFront browser into rendering pages faster, maintaining layouts more like what you’d see on a desktop, and boosting scrolling speeds.

There are also tweaks elsewhere in the system, with better Bing search integration, the ability to search within music folders, and intelligent handling of dragged-and-dropped files with a new Content Transfer app. This automatically sorts audio, video and photo files into the most appropriate place. The firmware is a free download.

I had the classic Sony Walkman with FM Stereo. I still have a crapload of cassettes from that era – and no way or reason to play them. I just can’t seem to throw them away.
