5 out of 5 stars Zoom for the Zune!.......2007-12-26

I received the 80gb Zune for Christmas and love it! I have been doing all the necessary downloads so I can begin transferring music. After reading some reviews, I don't know what the big deal is about downloading the Zune software. Laziness or lack of research on the product may be the answer. I have read both booklets that come with the product and followed everything to a "t"....and guess what!?! Everything seems fine if you follow directions.

It's sleek new look makes it very attractive, the glass screen is also nice (i'm gonna buy a plastic cover though). It's easy to use and I love the large screen. It's still new to me, so I'm learning a lot about the Zune, but so far, I can't put it down!

5 out of 5 stars What I expect.......2007-12-26

If you are looking for a digital media device that functions like it should then this is the one.

The Zune was easy to set up and the function has met or exceeded my expectations. I bought 3 IPOD nanos for my kids last year and found the design to be less than satisfactory. I decided to try the new 80 gig Zune this year. I bought 2 and I must say the Zune is ten times better than the IPODS. The software works like it should. The Zune navigation works like it should, I hated the Ipod wheel this is twice as easy. The graphics and the 3 inch screen are great. The kids love the radio function. Now Zune just needs to get manufactures to make more accessories for it.

The only thing that stumped me for just a couple seconds was changing the settings to find my sons music folder but that was solved with the help feature.

4 out of 5 stars Can't stop playing with it!.......2007-12-26

I have scoured the reviews on Amazon for months trying to decide between an iPod and a Zune. The closest I've come to an mp3 player was a WALKMAN cell phone...so this was a big deal for me.
After spending the last few weeks trying to load my cd collection into my computer....today was the day!
I can honestly say, I have not stopped playing with my Zune all day (and I'm 44!). It's one of those things that you don't know how you lived without it once you get it in your hands. I work in a job where I wear headphones all day, so this is wonderful. I can listen to years of music I've collected and forgotten about.
The main reason I chose the Zune is for the radio and the screen size. Remember the days when you took pictures and actually had photos to share (I put everything on the computer and burn to cd to watch on the dvd player)? I can now share my photos with others on a screen large enough to see.
As far as the sound quality, I haven't much to compare it with but feel it sounds just fine.
For anyone who is still undecided, take the time to read the reviews on Amazon. I do it for any major purchase I make now.

1 out of 5 stars Do not buy.......2007-12-26

Other reviewers have thoroughly explained why this product is crap, so I won't get into it. All I'll say is I received this for Christmas and it is the most frustrating piece of technology I have dealt with. It's about to go through a window. Save yourself from wall punching anger and avoid this product even if you have to pay more for a superior product.

1 out of 5 stars Didn't make it for Christmas!!.......2007-12-25

I ordered the Zune 80GB for my son on 12-17-07, paid extra to get it in 3-5 days, and here it is Christmas afternoon with NO Zune. Thank goodness my son is old enough to understand poor shipping promises. Hopefully the Zune will be worth the wait!!

4 out of 5 stars Good companion for a bus commuter.......2007-12-11

I got this to listen to the radio on the commuter bus in Los Angeles area. FM doesn't work so well other than loud pop-rock stations, but AM is fine. The FM problem is probably because of the bus ride, since when I'm walking on the street, there's not much interference. I usually listen to AM news stations during the commute rather than music anyways, so it works for me.
It is fairly heavy on my ears, though. It doesn't bother me so much during my 30 minutes bus ride + a few minutes walk to the office, but I don't think I can work out with it.

4 out of 5 stars Almost perfect!.......2007-09-22

I have had a Sony radiowalkman for 15 years and was devastated when it broke and further devastated when I could not locate another one at any electronic outlet stores. This is perfect, lighter and slimmer than my old one. Needs only one improvement--radio presets.

4 out of 5 stars Good reception, but ..........................2007-08-04

I like the reception quality for this product, also the design for usage.
I do find it uncomfortable on my ears after a short while. Needs constant adjustment for short duration of no anoying pain.

5 out of 5 stars Sony Sports AM/FM Radio headphones.......2007-07-22

lightweight, stays on during strenuous exercise, the analog tuning allows you to easily pick up stations (at the gym or while you're outside). This is the 2nd time I purchased this. The first pair was stolen.

5 out of 5 stars .......2007-07-18

I WALK AT LEAST 2 MILES EVERY DAY FOR 9 YEARS AND FIND THE SONY SRF-H11 RADIO WALKMAN IS THE BEST I HAVE EVER USED... NO WIRES... GREAT RECEPTION... COMFORTABLE FIT OVER THE EARS..
