Check Out the Affordable Sony Walkman – The S-544

For years, the Walkman by Sony was the hottest music player. I had one of those Walkmans by Sony. It had an OK stereo radio and a nice tape deck. Until now, Sony keeps on making nothing but high quality gear, including its new Walkman, the S-544 Video MP3 player. The new Walkman is a cool tech gadget.

Naturally, today it’s purportedly all about the iPod. But, the arrival on the scene of the new Sony Walkman is about to change everything. The tape deck may have been phased out, but there are many other good features, including a high quality FM radio receiver.

One of the best things Sony has added to its Walkman is stereo speakers that are built right into the player. You no longer have to listen through your earphones. Also, you can share your music much more easily. This is also great for people who prefer not always having to put up with ear plugs.

Years ago when I bought my first Sony Walkman, I could actually record on tape songs that I heard on the radio. And naturally, Sony included this technology in to its new Walkman, allowing people to record not simply radio broadcasts, but you can also record business meetings or anything else you desire.

This great Walkman MP3 player features a nice, bright 2.4-inch view screen, awesome for video viewing. Importantly, it also allows you to watch different video formats. This is handy and saves all that searching for file format converters. This device is see as a future gadget.

Yet another brilliant feature is the alarm clock that’s built right into the. How convenient is this if you need a short nap, but can’t chance oversleeping? And I haven’t even brought up the convenient sleep timer for when you want to doze off while listening.

That’s not adequate? Fine, let me talk about the battery. You will be able to listen for 42 hours of music without having to charge up the unit. Moreover, you can watch more or less 6 1/2 hrs of video without having to recharge the battery. How’s that for time between battery recharging?

You can purchase the S-544 in violet, black, red or pink. The Sony S-544 players also are offered in either 8GB or 16 GB models, depending on what you are looking for. And the fact that the 8GB Sony S-544 player can be had for $84. That’s a good price, since the comparable iPod sells for at least twice as much.
To sum it up: Sony’s S-544 Walkman is one of the top MP3 players you will find, and a fantastic value at under $100.
