After trying various mp3 players I am using the
Sony Walkman NWZ-B172
1. It does not require cables but attaches directly to the USB port
2. It does not need a battery but charges directly from the USB port
3. It has an auto resume feature so you can stop and come back to the same spot
Files can simply be dragged and dropped, no propriety software like apple
4. Up to 18 hours battery life
5. 2GB storage is more than enough for hours of sermons - and you can use it as a
thumb-drive for word documents etc...
6. It has a built in mic which can record sermons (or anything else) at a push
7. Quick charge means 3 mins charging gives 90 minutes play time
8. Comes with in-ear headphones
9. Has a Bass boost function (don't expect a graphic equaliser)
10. Should you mislabel a file you can listen to the first couple of seconds of everything using
what is called a "zappin" feature until you find it
11. Compact at 28g with a 1.2" LCD screen (original model came with a detachable clip)
12. Choice of colours originally black, now red or blue
The NWZB183 newer model has a 4GB capacity
