Is the Android Walkman replacing the X?

[glove4]

Having read some stuff about these android walkmans coming out this year, I wonder if this is the reason for discontinuing the X series. Is it still getting an X anyway? I am really looking to get a touch screen player and am thoroughly disillusioned with the Zune HD at this point. My Sony E series tops it by a mile in SQ, but the price of the X has always turned me away. Wifi is no big deal for me at this point and in waiting for this android walkman to arrive, I wonder if its worth getting an X--is it a player worth keeping for the long haul even after being discontinued?
