I bought a 2gb version of this a couple months back. I'd never owned a MP3 player before. But this gets better sound quality reviews than the ubiquitous iPod. And is cheaper.

Sony Walkman at Amazon

What I like best:

Sound is Great. Really Bassy
Noise Cancelling Headphones work well
Its the size of a cigarette lighter!
Software is pretty easy to use

What I dont like

You can only charge it through a USB port
Theres no "Off" switch. But you can get round this.
It doesnt like WMA files.


On that last point. Apart from Limewire can anyone recommend a source for Mp3's. I registered with Napster but their catalogue is a bit lacking. I understand that iTunes doesn't work with non-iPods.

Anyone?
