The all new MP3 WALKMAN flash

Intuitive and innovative

The brand new MP3 WALKMAN Flash is not just beautifully small and lightweight, it's such an amazing music player that you'll be wondering how you ever managed without it in no time at all.

As well as its attractive design, available in a range of colours including black, violet, pink, blue, silver and a very exclusive lime green, the new E Series is tiny, as small as a pack of chewing gum and packs a real punch when it comes to playing your favourite tunes on the move.

To make life even easier, it comes with a built-in direct USB jack which means you can simply plug it in to your PC and transfer all your favourite music within seconds. As well as being very easy to use, you get up to 28* hours playback with the fantastic rechargeable battery.

*when using ATRAC 132 kbps with the power save mode set at 'super'

If this wasn't enough, it only takes a mere three minutes to charge in order to enjoy up to three hours of playback. So plug it in, make a cup of tea and your new E Series is ready to entertain you for the next three hours. For a full charge, the E Series only needs two hours.

You also get a set of headphones, the essential SonicStage3.4 CD-ROM and a quick start guide whether you choose the 512 MB, 1 GB version or the 2 GB one. So once you've made your purchase, you're ready to go. Other accessories available are an attractive armband, a silicon protective case, an acrylic splash-proof case and a clip with 3 caps making this one of the most stylish music players on the market.

If this wasn't enough to make you rush out and buy your E Series WALKMAN, it's also worth noting that it comes fully equipped with stop watch and a clock and calendar function too. And if you are a radio fan the 512 MB and 1 GB versions have the option of an *FM tuner.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Little thing, BETTER THAN IPOD SHUFFLE BUY A LONG SHOT, 5 Nov 2006

    This review is from: Sony NW-E005BC Walkman 2GB MP3 Player - Black (Electronics)
    I got this in April after losing my NW-E407. I was therefore familiar with how these players work, and although this has a smaller screen it is in fact easier to use than the older model.
    I have to admit, the necessary Sonic stage isn't anywhere near as user friendly as iTunes but it is still easy to use and having all my songs in the ATRAC3plus format at 32kbps means that i have 600 songs on it, taking up only 900MB!!! so I now i also have a 1GB flash drive!
    The screen, a one line OLED,which isn't amazing and is impossible to see in sunlight but, unlike the ipod shuffle, it still has a screen. The sound quality is amazing for such a little thing, beating Apple hands down on that front.
    So, if you want a small MP3 player that has a screen, for a good price, get this

    This review is from: Sony NW-E005BC Walkman 2GB MP3 Player - Black (Electronics)
    It was with some trepidation that i purchased a sony mp3 player due to the mixed reviews regarding the software that is supplied (sonic stage 3). Well i can say that it was installed with no problems at all and is as simple as ABC. I am impressed with the players performance and its ease of use. I sugest that in the event you can install with no problems then you will be happy with this item therefore i thoroughly recomend it. 5x

    5.0 out of 5 stars The best-value MP3 on the market: software is NOT that bad!, 4 Aug 2006
    This review is from: Sony NW-E005BC Walkman 2GB MP3 Player - Black (Electronics)
    My first ever MP3 player. I got it from Amazon a week ago. Sounds great - headphones fine. Battery life defies belief - I've still not managed to run it down from its initial charge, despite lots of listening. It charges in any USB port (truly international standardisation - no adaptor needed, any laptop PC / web cafe will do...3 minutes charge = 3 hours listening.)
    OK, so the software isn't brilliant, but I am no IT whizz and I managed fine. I downloaded SonicStage 4.0 from Sony's website before I ordered the MP3 player itself. I easily transferred 90 CDs onto Sonic Stage, and from there onto this tiny MP3 player. Yes, 90 albums on a cigarette-lighter sized player. I recommend it to anyone - and 2GB at this price? Easy decision. Buy it.
