Missing functions on the S545

[klezmer41]

Right now the S639 is at BestBuy for $160, and the S545 is $120. They each have 16GB. What are the differences and should I go for one over the other?

S545 has Alarm function and speaker, both in which the S639 don't

Does have the S639 better SQ (?), cause I've heard something

It sounds pretty good - better than other Sonys I couldn't say.

It has SenseMe and podcast support missing from the newer S.

Cant find the post now, so adding to this on this thread

Somoene was complaining about really slow fastforward on the S544/S545, if you haven't found it by now, if you pause the track then fast forward its much faster, like x10, much better for podcasts or single track mp3 albums
