"Finally a sony flash base player with FM tuner."
Pros: FM tuner/Internal rechargable battery(50hrs)/ATRAC3plus or MP3/No need for wires with built in USB plug/
Cons: No talk of FM record or voice record./could have better EQ presets/Little bigger than my NW-E99 but ok / I only hope there is an option for AC plug to recharge as well.
Summary: To the dude that gave the 3*** rating "get off what your on!" Sony's ATRAC3plus format sounds great and shrinks the size down to at least half the size of an MP3. You need an LCD or OLED to see what folder of music you are choosing. I guess you don't have this problem with the Shuffle because of the few songe you can put on it. Oh! Did I almost forget you need the FM Tuner for the radio? Daaaaahhh! Don't know what your talking about female male get yourself figured out first. The only reason I would buy a shuffle is because I was a blinde consumer. I am trading in my NW-E99 on a defect and getting this one.Updated
If there is one thing a portable music player should be able to do is to make playlists while on the go. I have to spend enough time at my computer and to think I would have to sit there and organize playlists for say a workout or jog? I don't think so. I put all the artists together in there own folders and would like to take the wildest songs of each to make a playlist for my workout. Come on Sony your slouching. This is my only complaint about any portable player.
Because of the battery life and number of songs sony can crunch into that little thing when compared to the rest of the flashed based mp3 market, I am staying with my rating.
