- Awesome sound, variety of bass and treble settings.
- Brilliant design.
- Great looking display.
- Unparalled battery life, ultra-fast charge time.
- Superlight.
- Display difficult to read in bright sunlight
- Had to patch Windows XP before SonicStage would even start
- SonicStage software chokes on large directories
I love my Sony NW-E407 Network Walkman, it's good looking and the features are everything you would want or need from a 1Gb flash player. The display is looks fantastic and is easy to read, although in bright sunlight may be difficult to see. Navigating your music is simple, with an easy to understand grouping and menu system. The battery life is simply astounding, with SONY claiming at least 50 hours, and charge times via USB are miniscule. It is ultralight and compact, but feels quite durable.
The only complaint I have really, is the software, which didn't work out of the box. I had to patch Windows XP before SonicStage would even start up, and then adding your library is a painstaking process, as it chokes on large directories. I had to resort to adding one letter at a time (eg. all the 'A' artists, then 'B', etc.) They really need to open it up to simple drag and drop access through Windows.
