About.com has a first look at the Sony D-VE7000S DVD Walkman:
The D-VE7000S has a slim design at 7-5/8 inches wide by 5-3/8 inches tall by 1-1/8 inches deep. It weighs around one pound, twelve ounces and comes in a stylish black body which sports a seven-inch wide screen, high definition color LCD display. This screen takes much of the real estate of the topside of the player and is accompanied by six or so control buttons.
This multi-format DVD player receives its discs via the bottom of the player, which pops down to reveal the interior. Supported formats includes both dual and single layer DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, JPEG, MP3, CD-R/RW and CD+R/RW discs. DVDs with Dolby Digital and DTS encoding are also supported, allowing consumers the ability to enjoy surround sound as they watch a movie.
