5.0 out of 5 stars Even a dummy can use it, January 24, 2008

I am a complete novice to MP3 players, and only a little computer savvy. I have resisted the MP3 craze for a long time now because I am an old school audiophile and prefer "albums" to "tunes". But when my FM headphone unit I used for workouts at the gym crapped out on me, I decided to take the plunge, assuming they could be had with FM capability for the option of watching the TVs at the gym.

I have to say I am pleasantly surprised at how easy this Sony is to use, and how good it sounds. I did have to download an updated version of Windows Media Player, but once I did that even a tech dummy like me easily ripped my favorite CDs to my computer, and "sync-ed" the songs to the MP3 player.

And the sound is pretty good for a relatively cheap set of earbuds, with actual bass and good clarity. I'm not going to give up my multi-thousand dollar stereo anytime soon, but for car and gym use, it will do very well.

My only problem is finding an armband for it,...Read more

I'm not sure why others are having problems, but this item works great for me. I'm using Window$ XP, with Winodow$ Media Player 11. I plug the Walkman into my USB port, and it shows up in Media Player, ready to save music to.

I created a few Playlists, dragged them to the side (as Media Player showed), and clicked "Sync." Then all the songs were loaded onto the Walkman. It even converted my non-MP3 files into MP3s without me having to do anything.

All this *without* having to insert the provided CD (I think it's mostly a Napster free trial and the instructions for the Walkman in PDF).

I also really like the FM receiver. It's a nice feature that I don't think ipods have.

It also has AVLS, which if you turn it on won't let you turn it up past "safe" sound limits--I found the maximum volume lower than I might have thought was safe, so it's a good reminder that these little ear buds can easily cause hearing damage. (This feature is an option,...Read more

I was very positively impressed by the ease of loading content on to this Walkman, charging it, battery life, and audio quality. The earphones that come with the device are light and easy to use. I am happy with the 2 gigabyte capacity. The "hold" wheel lock on the back allows the push-button controls to be temporarily suspended, which is perfect when keeping the Walkman in a pocket while doing some manual activity. I am glad that I bought this product rather than some similar competitor products. I would recommend it, and consider it an excellent value.
