    I like the Walkman's size. Just stick it in your pocket and exercise, do chores or whatever. It is easy to move around from song to song, or select music. It is hard to shut off at times. I am enjoying this little music maker!

    The Sony MP3 player is perfect for those who want to carry a small device that plays music and movies. You can put in your pocket or run with it in your hand. It is convenient and the sound is good too!

    I use this all the time. Plug it in and cutting the grass goes faster. I also use this on my motorcycle. Light weight and a one inch square of Velcro holds it to the dash. I have 66 CD on this and still room.

    it's a walkman, not an Ipod

    I lost my Ipod and really needed an mp3 player - I found this Walkman at a much lower price. Easy to use, sounds great, but the 'off' button doesn't work well - the slightest touch when it's in your pocket or bag and it turns itself on and drains the battery.

    I bought this for portability when running. It's small and holds a lot of music and podcasts. So far, so good!

    I've had better Sony Walkman MP3 players before. This one always goes on HOLD after a few minutes, and doesn't have the same features as a previous version of the Sony Walkman MP3 player. I was disappointed.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I thought this player seamed pretty small in the packaging, but after setting it up and playing with it I love it. Works well with simple easy to use interface. My 11 year old son loves it also.

    Good Moderately Expensive MP3 Player

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this MP3 player about a month ago after my daughter's Sansa Clip + MP3 quit only 6 months after we purchased it. So far, the MP3 player is operating well. The only complaint I have is that it supports limited formats. For example, it does not play songs in the AAC format.

    I purchased this for my mother (70+) as a Christmas gift. She really likes it and has found it easy to use. She likes the size, weight and clarity of the music. Loading songs onto the player is fairly easy too. I would recommend this player to anyone who wants more than an 1" x 1" MP3 player.

    We wanted a good music player for a kid that was easy to use and did not have all the online accessibility features that kids don't really need anyway. This is just right!

    This is a good mp3 player for the price. Some of the more expensive models have a better user interface but in terms of sound quality they're no different.
