Sony NW-S205 Network Walkman Reviewed: For The ‘Active’ MP3 Crowd

This might look like a flashlight or a microphone, but it’s the latest generation of the Sony Walkman.

The venerable music player has been reborn so many times that it’s hard to keep track of them all. This one is the most technologically advanced yet, featuring an MP3 player, FM tuner, and—amazingly enough—a pedometer. Sony calls it the G-Sensor, but a pedometer it is, able to track how long you’ve walked or run. The memory capability is a little slim, at just 2GB, but that’s still a lot of songs.

The whole shebang will set you back just US$150, and it runs well right out of the box. For those keeping score at home, the full name of the product is the Sony NW-S205 Network Walkman, and you can check out a review at CNET.
