Digital camera reviews of Sony Walkman Digital Tuning Weather FM/AM Stereo Cassette Player (Silver)

Digital camera Review: Great for the price
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this as a replacement for an old Walkman. I really like, it but the old one had automatic rewind which I miss. Also the earphones are bigger than my old one, but I can live with them. All in all it is a great little tape player to keep me doing my daily walks.
