SONY has added a new model to its stable of Walkman music players - the NWZ-A820 which features Bluetooth technology.

This means you can stream your music to Bluetooth headsets, speakers and car audio systems, instead of hooking the player up with wires.

Besides playing music, you can also watch videos on the player's 2.4 inch LCD screen. It can also play back video at 30 frames per second and display images both horizontally or vertically.

The player supports AVC Baseline Profile, Mpeg-4, MP3, AAC, and WMA file formats.

• Available in 4GB ($299) and 16GB ($459) models
