    I really think the radio is a great feature and I appreciate that as an option. My workout time has increased because of this product. I wish I could dance around at the health club and if anyone asked why I was so happy, I would say, "It's my Sony MP3 player!"

      Comments about Sony 2GB Walkman Video MP3 Player In Red:

      I love this product! The size is perfect to fit into a pocket or even a small cell phone case (which is what I used to avoid spending big $$ on the Sony website for a case). I don't really care for the earbuds that came with, not very comfortable, but that is a minor detail. Abt definately had the best price on these as I had been looking for about three months. The unit itself is very easy to use, has lots of space on it and sounds great. The video screen, though small, looks great (I have only seen the video clip that comes preloaded onto it as I have not downloaded any movies or shows myself yet). I would definately recommend this to anyone looking for a good quality video mp3 player!

      Comments about Sony 2GB Walkman Video MP3 Player In Red:

      The only con so far IMO is you have to convert videos to MP4 and there's converter software included. Other than that its been great so far, i have even dropped it 2 times and its still running strong.
