Summary: Hindsight is 20 / 20
Review: I purchased this item as a gift for a friend. I admit, it has great features, namely, it's portable, It has TV / Weather broadcast capabilities, and its a Sony. For the most part it is a great item, w/ great sound....BUT....it is not very user friendly. The buttons are too close together. The display is way too dark when you are trying to tune in a station, but even more importantly, the display letters are so flippin' small, you need a magnifying glass to see what it says. (which mode you are in) Not one of Sony's well thought out products. Definitely not up to their name. If you don't have 20/20 Vision--Don't buy this item!

Summary: Very good tape player/radio
Review: I received this walkman for Christmas, and so far I am really enjoying it. The reception is very good, and the sound is clear. The bass boost is strong. The TV band goes from Channel 2 to 13. I've never had a TV walkman before, and it was fun to listen to PBS or a soap opera while taking my lunchtime walk. :) The last portable stereo I had had a very loose, floppy type belt clip, which I hated. The belt clip on this one works well. The reason that I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5 is that when the batteries are low, the unit just turns off. I would prefer to have it give me crummy reception until I get new batteries, but maybe that is just my own personal preference.
