Rating: - Excellent Walkman
I have read the crybaby reviews from "no dc adapter" to dropping it and it not working properly. Whiners. Take care of things. You aren't little kids. I have had this Walkman for 6 years with no problem. It was, for quite a number of years, my primary source of music. Alas I cannot find another. If I could I would even buy one used and repair my worn out WMFX 479. Stop crying you bunch of tape player abusers. You need Fred Flintstone equipment!
Rating: - A mixed bag, but worth the look
I can't fathom sometimes what Sony is thinking. They made a great Walkman and then loaded it down with unnecessary stuff that makes you wonder.

I have had this walkman for over a year and I love it!! The only thing is I cant find a DC adaptor for it and there is not an DC accesorie for it. I think they should make one. Other than that it is a really excellent walkman. I have droped it a few times and nothing has happened much. I use it everyday for pamphlete delivery and it has survived that. If u want any info on it email me at hotmix2@hotmail.com
Rating: - My Favorite Walkman Yet
I really love this walkman. It has tons of great features like the ability to hold 30 preset stations on the radio. The sound quality is really good too. I also like the way how everything is digital on the walkman, so that you can put the walkman on hold so nothing can turn it on unless you move the hold switch. This was really helpful for me as when i would carry my old walkman in my backpack it would always turn on and batteries would run out quickly. In this case it doesnt happen. The ... Read More
Rating: - Cheaply Constructed and Overpriced
Easy to use with good sound quality, but... Beeps loudly in the headphones for every button you press and when the tape reverses direction. I found this both unecessary and annoying. No clip on the unit itself, only on the case. This means you must remove the unit from the case everytime you want to change a tape. Also, the clip on the case is right side up, which means that you must remove the clip from your belt to do anything or learn to read upside down (unit is right side up to someone facing ...
