Strengths: COmpact, long battery life, excellent audio quality
Weakness: Software didn't work out of the box, required an update. Tracks purchased at some music sites won't load on this device
The Sony MW-HD5 walkman offers all of the features of the iPod, but at a lower price. Once you have the updated version of the software it's easy to transfer your music files to the device. However, if some of your tracks have been purchased at some other music sites they may not load onto the device. Sony says that they are working on this specific problem ( I hope so). Overall a quality device with a huge storage capacity when using Sony's compression scheme.
