Pros great built and audio quality
Cons lack of user interface customization and horrible blister pack
Recommended it? Yes

Many music players exist on the market, but most of the flash based units out have build quality issues or sound quality issues. Does Sony live up to their heritage of quality goods or is it another flash player in an over saturated market that does not perform, read and find out.
