So far, I like it a lot. 4.5 stars out of 5.br /br /The interface is intuitive. The menu system (press "option", navigate with the arrow keys and "back" button) is easy to navigate. br /br /I have no idea how long the battery will last. Using it intermittently through the day I've never gotten below 3/4 charge.br /br /For Windows 7, go to Sony and download the current software. This device can be treated as usb storage (files copied directly), but the software will handle conversion.br /br /For Linux, if Rhythmbox is running it will take control of the device (ie. it will not show up as a drive on the desktop). Getting files to the device is a little funky (hint: right click, "add to playlist". Go to playlist, then edit menu and copy. Go then to Walkman, edit menu, paste.) br /br /Minor nits: the cable is proprietary. It's one more expensive proprietary cable to keep track of. What would be wrong with Sony just using a standard USB cable? br /br /It would be nice if this had a clip.br /br /Files cannot be deleted from the player's menu. They must be deleted when attached to a computer.br /br /Video files, if copied via file manger (e.g. Windows Explorer) do not always show up as playable. Sony's software is able to copy them as playable files. How to do this with Linux? Don't know, don't care. I didn't buy this for video.

Awesome - J. S. Tidd - Thornton, CO
I love pretty much everything about this. Play list making is easy. It can go anywhere. It's loud. It's got great sound- as in "Did you know there were background voices whispering on this song" great. Only real glitch is really just that if water (liquid of any sort) gets in the speakers you'll probably want to turn it off- and you'll end up hearing a crackle. It doesn't kill the speakers at all it's just best to avoid things like rain with this. Once it drys out it's fine. Would I buy it again- totally. I've had mine for almost a year at this point with no issues. Battery is still as fantastic as it was to start out.
