Walkman Review

 

This is a great product. I'm amazed that these aren't more popular. I'm not a member of the cult of apple, so I previously used a Zune for when flying or working out. If you want music for working out, this is a no brainer.

Good product

 

I originally had the 1st generation of this product that had the headphones the small usb type player. My wife ended up washing it with my clothes so i went on amazon to buy the original. Sony upgraded to this hands free player, i was skeptical so i...

still going strong after a year

 

i can't say enough good things about this player. i have a job where i do a lot of physical labor, so corded headphones are not an option. i had the first generation as well, and this fixed a lot of the major problems, with the inclusion of an on/off...

Once again - Sony misses the point

 

Again they totally miss the point. Why would they make a product that dosent work on a mac or work with iTunes? Using it as a drag and drop option as a removable drive is also a very poor option. Sadly - though the product looks and feels like a great...

Great sound, poor fit

 

I ordered the 2GB W Series Walkman® MP3 player. Pros: great sound, no wires or cords to get tangled up in, easily and quickly charged. Cons: ear buds slip out once you get sweaty, wire band that fits around the back of your head is too long and can't...
