Sony has thrown in Bluetooth connectivity into a couple of its new PMPs, namely the 16GB NW-A829 and the 8GB NW-A828. Both of these PMPs feature MP3, WMA, ATRAC, Sony PCM, AAC/High Efficiency AAC, and MPEG-4/H.264 support, playing virtually every individual popular format of today (and tomorrow). Some folks might not be too happy with the 2.4″ LCD display, but you can’t really complain much considering the body measures a mere 9.3mm

wide while tipping the scales at 59 grams. A 36-hour battery life for audio is pretty decent, while a 10-hour viewing day for videos before a recharge is needed makes that a suitable companion for prolonged travel. There is no word on pricing or availability as at press instance.
