Total disappointment.
I pre-ordered the 1060 weeks ago and I was expecting to see it arrive at my doorstep today.

There was nothing.

I called CIC and asked for the status. They tell me, they have stocks for X-1000 now, both 16 and 32GB, but because of the FOC item is not arrived yet, we can't send you the goods. (WTF?)

I then asked would it be possible if I just pick the X1000 myself first from Sony Style then the FOC item can send to me later on, they said no. I asked then when only will I be receiving the stuffs, they answered me, SECOND WEEK OF JUNE.

Great.

I'm raged lol, what bullshit is this. Basically now you can go pick up your Brand spanking new X1000 at any Sony Style now, if you HAVE NOT PRE-ORDERED IT yet, and for those who have pre-ordered, sorry but you will have to wait 2 weeks longer than those who doesn't pre-order.

Very nice Sony.
I paid it, the credit card is charged, I pre-ordered it. I expect to have some priviledge over those who doesn't. Now what? (Well, please don't tell me those who buy from store now get the freebies too, lol)


Well it's fine, I guess I won't die waiting 2 more weeks.

I already played with this thing. Bloody damn superb sound quality with the noise canceling. I tell you, it's the best sound quality Sony ever produce. Really enjoyed listening to the music. Nice OLED screen, superb picture quality. Contrast is very high.

Cons: Difficulty in entering the web address. Site not found error prompt always appeared even though it' already correct. The touch button is too small and near each other makes it difficult. The website layout is 'misplaced'. i'm not enjoying surfing website on this thing.

Small screen. No screensaver. Cannot adjust the screen horizontally.

Conclusion: A very good video Walkman for those who really care about sound and video/picture quality. If you're an Ipod user or Ipod fanboy, this thing is not for you. biggrin.gif

Hope what you said on the sound quality is true, because that's all what I cared.
I don't really give a shit about the internet surfing, I want a GOOD portable music player and that's it.

What they told me this time?
"They will be sent END OF THIS MONTH"

Alright Sony Style, that's it. This is the last time I'll be buying stuff from this blerdy Sony Style I swear to God.

Can you actually can buy them?
I got mine with the pre-order but I think they mentioned it's limited or something.

Maybe you can ask SonyStyle or something about it. They probably have something else for it.
Truth to be told, the leather casing isn't all that great and they looked sorta boring. I'd probably get a nice looking pouch for it instead.
