It's very difficult for me to look at some of Sony's good products in the same way after experiencing this pathetic offering. It's good to note that there is a link to buy this item on the Top Picks page. You can't even upgrade the standard 64mb memory. The software uses an unpopular atrac3 as an alternative to mp3 to convert the songs. The software tends to be even buggier if you choose mp3 instead.
Unit is good, works well.
It looks cool and works really well. I would recommend it. Doesn't really play Mp3s. To convert Mp3s to Atrac3 takes too much time and space. The player is advertised to play Mp3s, but it doesn't.
