I thought the remote control unit was an additional attachment rather than a central connector which can't be bypassed. I don't always need or want a remote control. At these times it's combersome.However everything else about this product [...] lived up to my expections.

A very nice product that does all it says it will and more. A little bit of a learning curve on the controls but not bad. I didn't get to use it much since I bought it for my sister but I was wishing I had one. A strap or clip would be nice since it's a bit large for your pocket. [...]

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
As a function of its design concepts, this Sony really hits the mark. Incredible sound and battery life in a durable housing. Parametric EQ playback option allows for personalized sound-shaping to one's own preferences and hundreds of songs on one CD make this a real winner. I'm using with a set of Shure E4c earbuds and am amazed with the audio performance.
