So much more than an mp3 player

Advantages: A total all-round winner; I can't recommend it more!
Disadvantages: Big fat zero.

...you need to. All in all, I'm sure you can tell I'm extremely happy with my Walkman. I love it to pieces, carry it everywhere and now have a constant soundtrack to my life thanks to the great battery capacity. The Sony Walkman NWZ-S616F is, quite simply, the bees' knees. ...

Lovely lil piece

Advantages: small, leightweight and good features
Disadvantages: fiddly controls

...mp3 walkman 20gb, and thought sony would offer a pretty good "small" mp3 player... im not too sure whether i prefer this to the sony bean that came out a year or so ago. i like the asthetics of this handy clip on player, it weighs next to nothing and at around the same price as an Ipod nano, at least you get to see the tracklisting on screen. 2gb holds enough songs, around about 200 at the moment, the software is better than that supplied with my ...
...with this product, all hail sony who have given anouther fresh product to out do the guys at apple. if you want a small mp3 player that u wont even feel your carrying this one offers the features and functionality that are unmatched. The price can be a little high but then look what you get over the similar priced nano's ...

Why buy an Ipod?

Advantages: Size, ease of use, sonic stage, durability
Disadvantages: price, compatibility, naff supplied headphones

I sold my 20gb ipod after its second hard drive replacement and went solid state with what was the best bit of kit I could find when I bought it 18 months ago. Ok I've only got a weeks music to listen to but the unit is nigh on indestructable I've dropped mine a dozen times, had it rained on and spilt beer on it and have had zero issues it just keeps on working. The biggest plus is sonic stage which uses next gen. compression to get more tracks on ...
...also the biggest drawback as all the stuff I'd downloaded via itunes and napster required a lot of work to make them compatible and getting it to reverse is nigh on impossible. The controls are so simple my four year old second cousin could work them out for a xmas party and acted as dj for me upon about two minutes of instruction (if you understand international symbols it's easy eg sideways triangle for play, square for stop,etc) ...

The best player I have ever owned

Advantages: Excellent sonic performance, noise cancelling, bright screen
Disadvantages: Slightly flimsy control wheel, Sonicstage software may also be an issue for some

...I have owned include a Sony Walkman CD player, a Panasonic Minidisc player, a Sony HD1, and a Sony HD5, an iPod Mini, iPod Nano, and an iPod Video, all of which were sold within around four months of first purchasing them. Related to the sound of the player, is the built in noise cancelling, a feature unique to this player. At first I thought that this was purely a gimmicky feature included by Sony to give them a USP and gain a few more sales. How ...
...software in the past, however, Sony has made a great number of improvements to it, and althoufh it isn't quite as easy to use as iTunes, it is quite manageable and easy enough to live with. Overall, if you're prepared to live with the slightly awkward software, favouring instead the sonic performance this offers you certainly won't be disappointed with your purchase. ...
