Title: Sony NW-S205F (2GB)
Pros: Sony's NW-S200 S2 Sports Walkman features a unique design and several fitness-friendly extras; it applies nifty uses of Sony's G-sensor technology; sound quality is excellent; includes an FM tuner.
Cons: As usual, Sony's subpar (and required) SonicStage software sullies the experience, and there's no fitness software to help you track your progress. The included earbuds are uncomfortable and won't fit all users.
Verdict: The NW-S200 Walkman proves once again that Sony knows what it's doing in the hardware department; fitness-minded users should take a close look at this flash MP3 player. But make sure you're comfortable with SonicStage before you commit.

Title: Sony NWS205F - Gadget Guy Australia
Pros: Easy to carry, good sports features.
Cons: Slow file transfers, quirky interface, look like a high-tech junkie while using it.
Verdict: Sports junkies who are sick of iPods bouncing out of their shorts pockets while on a run or at the gym would do well to consider the NWS205F, but for all the couch potatoes and stay-at-home music lovers, it's not as good a choice
