Now, you might be wondering why I am reviewing this particular device. I am doing this so that you are not confined to one MP3 player. You might think that the iPod is the only and the best media player ever but Sony has really buckled down into creating a device as wonderful as this. It has a bright and crisp 3.5 inch screen, and Sony even sells accessories for it in its online store or its Sony Style stores. It has video playback as well, only you have to format it into a specific format, not all formats will work. This device produces excellent sound and produces excellent video quality.

What comes with the Walkman is a CD containing Sony’s Media Manager (Just use windows explorer or Quick Time), a dock (not sure why you need it), a set of premium earbuds that are excellent all on their own (do not last long), and a stand for it that will be placed on the back of the walkman (the little hanging thing) The stand is used so that  when watching a video the player will face you instead of having to hold it. Great battery life and many other features like a detailed EQ make this a very worthy competitor to the Apple iPod line. Enjoy.
