    Good Points: Beautiful, few people have one vaio pocket, the G-Sense is good


    Bad Points: I think the Vaio pocket is too heavy(weight)(i don't know about the 20 GO).
    The Battery is awful, you need like 20 hours for load the battery, it's so long and you can use it maybe 4.5 hours...
    If you want one album in your Vaio, you have to down very long time the screen with the G-Sense,and for change the music,you have to wait 3 second(push....1,2,3 ok!)is not practical.


    General comments: This mp3 is very beautiful,the quality of the sounds is perfect!!!
    You have remote like the MD before(i like it).
    I think the most problem is the battery. but is a good mp3 or hard disk for computer, you can put pictures, files etc

    Hi
    I have purchased this Sony Vaio Pocket VGF-AP1 and have no idea how to transfer my music on to the actual thing, it's so pathetic.
    I mean how hard can they make it
    I have 3 files on the system which are photos, skins, demo and I tried putting music in all of them and out side them but the thing doesn't seem to show me where the music is.

    Sony Vaio Pocket VGF-AP1 is a great product with a clear easy to use menu, good quality screen. However when transferring music the software converts to Attrac or OMG files so you cannot easily manage your files when plugged into a PC. The photo download function is easy and quick, but the camera (& charger) plugs into the cradle and not the unit which means if you are travelling its another item to carry. Personal opion, with the exception of camera capability the iRiver just takes pips this ...

    I bought this from Dixons after much searching. In fact, I bought an Ipod mini for my wife, so I have some experience of both brands.

    For those who love their music quality and want some style this machine is a great choice.

    1. It is a 40GB player - you will struggle to get 40GB for £199 anywhere else (even if it is being discontinued.)

    2. The screen is ace, and displays almost all the information you could ever want to see of any track i.e. The track title, The Album cover, ...

    I recently bought a Sony VGF-AP1L (the 'L' part indicates 40gb version) for £199 from Dixons. My first impressions were that it was rather large, and it had a wierd touchpad device. The touchpad has 25 buttons, you move the cursor by moving your finger across it. To select an option the button is pressed. This idea is good, and it is faster to use than a iPod or Zen ect. This takes a little getting used to but it is good once you have mastered it. Sony make your life difficult by not allo ...

    I got a Sony Vaio Pocket VGF-AP1 the other day and I am completely in love with it! The features are great and I have easily transfered all my CD collection over to this, keeping it all in MP3 format. A great move for Sony to finally support MP3 (if you receive one of these with the 2.1 Sonic Stage, a quick download from the sony site will update the the software and your player).

    I was suprised at all the goodies I got with my player. A great, sturdy docking bay; a three line remote control; ...
