2GB W Series Walkman Meb Keflezighi Great sound and love how light they are. I love the color because it matches th SF Giants :-). Easy to use and I love that they have 2 Gb of storage! That's a lot of songs! April 22, 2013
G4HSocial Super comfy and easy to use. Plug and play lets you get music on this quick and the recharge time is amazing. Only down side is that there is no eq or bass booster. Also no option to fast forward or rewind a track. so if you are listening to a podcast you have to just ride out those commercials or intros. April 22, 2013
I love it! Light, comfortable, simple, easy to understand (buttons). Amazing product April 20, 2013
Great Sound Quality, But..... It was very easy for me to figure out how to set up the walkman with my Mac, but there were no instructions. I was really excited to try them out because just sitting on my couch listening to them I was really impressed with the sound quality and excited about the prospect of not having to deal with wires or blue tooth, Unfortunately, about 10 minutes into my run with both headphone options they would not stay in my ears. Granted I have a larger than average head and sweat a bit more than the average bear, but I just can't use these. April 20, 2013
