  2. Far too expensive for what you get

    Sony NW-A1000 6GB By micj roberts (11/01/2007)
    • Pros: looks good
    • Cons: Short battery life, complicated upload from PC

    I had an Archos Gemini but left it on a train in Brighton, so albeit I was very happy indeed with my lost player, I decided to go for the Sony NW-A1000 player. I regret it.

    I was fortunate enough to get the software running ok but it's a long winded procedure to get songs from your PC to the device. Its a hard drive!!! why cant we just copy and paste like on any other drive?

    The sound quali... Read Full Review »

  3. Sony 6Gb Walkman

    Sony NW-A1000 6GB By joseph mcdonald (03/10/2006)
    • Pros: Crisp sound, light, potrable, looks ace!
    • Cons: Awful software, can`t read screen in sunlight.

    Was chuffed to bits when I got this but it was weeks bfore I had it up and running due to the truly disgarceful software(ask anyone). After ripping tracks from one cd, I have to close down and restart the program each time. Not cool! Also, although crisp, the sound ain`t loud enough. Does the job though. Read Full Review »

  4. Sony what have you done

    Sony NW-A1000 6GB By hayden von-stollberg (20/08/2006)
    • Pros: nice and small, looks good
    • Cons: the software, the attitude of sony, the price

    I had one of these to replace another mp3 player dropped in a river, that one was 20gb. So i was amazed that this 6gb was roughly the same price As for the software (called connect), it is useless, don't take my word for it just read reviews on the web. Sony have had plenty of time to sort this out but they haven't bothered. If you can go for about £30ish extra and go for the Archos Gmini ... Read Full Review »

  5. Not so good

    Sony NW-A1000 6GB By Linh Dinh Huynh (05/07/2006)
    • Pros: unique design, huge capacity, great sound
    • Cons: the OMG format

    Everything is okay, except the format of media files. It takes me about 1 minute to convert a 5-Mb-song (using CONNECT, the software attached to the mp3 player)Does anyone know a faster way to convert the files? Read Full Review »
