Sony officially has plans to unveil its first touch-screen Walkman at CES next month, but so far hasn’t revealed anything about the product. However, rumors are here to save the day: the new Walkman will feature a 3-ich OLED touch-screen, Wi-fi and a built-in browser, among other things.

There will be other web-based features, too:

While most of the usual menu structure of the current Walkman series will be retained in this new model, there are several new exciting features included. For example, upon listening to an artist, you may click on the artist name and watch music videos of the artist on YouTube through Wi-Fi (WPA and WEP support included). Additionally, there will be a Youtube icon on the main screen that will allow full access to the website – search, pause, FF/RW included very similar to Youtube access on the iPhone/iTouch. Additionally, this new Walkman will be able to subscribe to audio podcast and Crackle video feeds; this means automatic download of new updates, the ability to delete old feed content, all over Wi-Fi.

CES is just one month away! It’s time Apple had some good competition.
