CNET Review
The Good: Compact and ergonomic design; awesome battery life; plays back MP3; decent over-the-ear headphones; water resistant.
The Bad: Tiny display; controls somewhat confusing; expensive.
The Bottom Line: It's sporty, it's long-lasting, and it plays MP3s! Sony takes a huge step forward with its NW-S23.

Review Summary: The Sony S2 Sports Network Walkman is oddly designed player with software that didn't work well, and it's encumbered by internal Sony standards.
