 disappointed in California June 28, 2008
Jane Doe (Panorama City, CA USA)
I received my sony walkman and their are no instructions that came with this product. My biggest gripe is that the stations are set to Mexican
stations and not to English stations. It's ok if you're Mexican I guess.
Without instructions what the heck am I suppose to do? Send it back.
Lasted for 8 months June 21, 2008
YUZO IDA (Los Angeles, CA)
I bought this Sony Walkman in September 2007.
From Day One, I found that Weather & TV didn't work at all.
But I kept using this product because FM radio & Cassette Player were working well & these functions were more important than the rest.
It totally broke down early this month, June 2008.
What should I do with this product? Any suggestion?

I bought this as a replacement unit for my wife. She has several exercise cassette tapes and her old Walkman broke after about 15 years. This has proved to be a very worthy replacement. Plus it will come in handy as a weather radio during the hurricane season here in Miami.
 Tape Player May 23, 2008

I found that the sound on the tape player, was not good at all. At first I thought it was my tapes, because I had not play them in a while. Then I used another walkman and discover there was nothing wrong with my cassette tapes. It with this walkman that was sounding kind of muffled. Having said that the radio, I fine good and the sound was good, coming from the radio. I still love my tapes, and I hope, they don't do away with them completely.

AMAZING Sound!! May 18, 2008
MADELEINE N. TIKTIN (LARCHMONT, NY USA)
This is a small but wonderful unit, with extra bass, if you so desire to avail yourself of it. It plays my cassettes beautifully, and is a great value for the money.
