If Sony was serious about making a bang on the music scene with their superbly designed touchscreen Walkman, Samsung wasnt one to watch the tides turn against its favor. With their latest PMP which even has the coolest haptic technology, Samsung are just spoiling for the fight. As for the iPod, for Apples sakes, lets hope they began redesigning it long back. The iTunes propoganda wont last for long.

So far, if you just compare the specs, I am taking Sonys side (the touchscreen walkman) ; but lets see ow this goes. We shall keep you posted as they release more details.
