    Christmas present for wife and she likes it. Comes w/o nice extras such as neck/arm-strap, or any type of carrying device - that's extra. Sony arm case is available [...]. Supplied earphones are standard, nothing speacial- and for Sports/Travel I have ordered specific Sports type earphones. Unit is SMALL which is OK, but display is very small- wear your readers!
