This is an excellent mp3 player for the price. It's easy to use menus make it user-friendly for anyone from child age through teens, the technophobe to the techno-confident user. The USB style makes connection to your laptop easy and if you're running Windows Vista then Windows Media Player kicks in to make transferring files as easy as one, two, three.

At 2GB the player holds a good amount of albums and sorts them by artist, song title or album. The display is brught and easy to read. Battery life is excellent, at least 18-20 hours playback. Slim design makes it so easy to fit into any pocket or handbag. The sound quality from the included headphones is fantastic as you would expect from Sony. I think it is worth the RRP for the quality of sound alone. Definitely one of the better mp3 players we have owned and we loved it so much three of us in our house own one.
