Bubble Buster
(1 out of 5) by Peter Venn on Aug 23, 2009 (Brighton)And now for a review from someone who isn't over sixty...
Looks aside (for which I give it one star), unfortunately this player has the most weedy sound output I have ever come across in an MP3 device. If you are on the bus/train /tube (escpecially the latter) you simply can't hear a thing. It is seemingly designed for people who like to sit in a darkened room and gently massage their ears before bed in the evening, which is all well and good, but makes it practically useless in daily life. Especially naff if you live anywhere with any background noise whatsoever, like London, or want to listen to anything reasonably subtle, since the autmoatic EQ deadens everything so much you may need an ear trumpet yourself. This is the first poor Sony product I have purchased, so I won't blacklist them quite yet; maybe a more expensive model would do the trick. But alas, the message for this little player is Avoid At All Costs - unless, it seems, you are drawing your pension.

Perfect for Jogging
(4 out of 5) by Alison James on Aug 10, 2009 (Paris)Great sound, light to carry and very stylish. (esp. for the price I paid) Strange shuffle system though - when I turn it off it always starts from the beginning of the song collection and not from where I left on when I last used it.
Really Good
(5 out of 5) by B. T. Connell on Aug 7, 2009Grelly good for what it is. SOme things I like include:
It can cope with tracks longer than 60 minutes which my old one couldn't. It remembers what track you were on and how far through after being charged.
The cap actually clips on wont fall off accidently.
There is a progress bar.
I'm comparing this to my last one which is now 2 years old and looking back on it really kinda crap.
You can get 2GB players for less but I think I'm going to get what I paid for with this.
I haven't used the voice recoring facility. Does anyone use that?

BIG Value for a Tiny Little Player.
(5 out of 5) by G. RINGHAM on Jul 21, 2009 (UK)This little Player is typical of Sony technology. Attractive in design and outstanding quality. Whilst you only get what you pay for, this little gem was very inexpensive bought through Amazon.
I'm 64yrs and found this Sony digital player easy to use in every way. It has its own built in Programme Link to Media Player that makes downloading songs a 'piece of cake.' The first time you plug into your computer this programme uploads for you. And I just love that plug in design. No cables to tangle up, which can be a major frustration with other devices.
The display screen although small, is more than adequate, clearly showing all your music titles.
A snazzy piece of kit which I'm really pleased with.
