Sony Korea launches the Walkman NWZ-S740 series, a new noise-canceling video MP3 player that features a language learning mode and advanced Clear Audio Technologies. Boasting a slim Walkman chassis with an extended battery life of up to 42 hours of music and 10 hours of video, the Walkman is perfect for active users constantly on the go.

The new Walkman series features the new Language Learning mode, making mastering a foreign language easier. Within the Language Learning mode, the A-B repeat function allows convenient playback of desired sections of audio books, while the Quick Replay function reverses audio tracks in 3-second intervals with a push of the button. In addition, DPC Speed Control allows tracks to be played at various speeds.

Yep. You can even trade earbuds for $50 bucks off of the mighty HD 650.

Even better, the program has been extended to the end of September 2008 to include summer travel and back-to-school shopping.

From now through September 30, 2008, upgrade to a high quality pair of Sennheiser’s and they will give you cash just for unloading the old ones…even if they are broken, crusty, damaged or an obscure brand. Best of all, you’re likely to find a better type of headphone for your needs than what a stock earbud can provide: sport headphones, in-ear headphones, noise cancelling headphones and more.
Here’s how it works:

Gather up your old headphones, which can be new, old, broken, used, any brand – they don’t care!
Upgrade to a pair of Sennheiser’s (see link below for eligible models)
Mail the old headphones E-Z trade form and get $$ for your trade. It’s really that easy.

Seriously… I might have to take advantage of this myself. Find out more at Sennheiser USA.
