Sony quietly introduces the new B180 Series Walkman

Sony quietly introduced the new B180 Series Walkman.  No press release that I can see and not a surprise since it only just changes the design but I feel much of what is inside the device is the same as before.  It is 4GB only, USB 2.0, around 20 hours of playback, there is no FLAC support.  Apparently the design is aluminum, which adds a nice premium touch.  Colours are blue, pink, red and black, price in the UK is 35 pounds, can’t seem to find the EU price yet, EU price appears to be 49.00 euros.  It states the device is temporarily out of stock on the Sony UK site.

There is another colour, gold, but that seems to be region limited, as in Russia, Middle East and Africa.
