Talk MP3/cd player rocks

I've been wanting a player to play some of my music on those long Track & Field trips where I'm just sitting on a bus for half a day. Well I just went to best buy yesterday and bought a Panasonic SL-SX420 for $60 (plus I bought the extra 2 year extended warrenty for another $7). This thing rocks!

My old discman has to be spun up manually (its engine is giving out), and it had some anti-shock thing which meant that it wasn't really shocked when I would drop kick it because it skipped more then a my friend skips class! Seriously this thing had a shorter battery life then my 486 laptop and was louder.

This new one though is amazing! I popped in a cd that had some mp3's in a folder along with a bunch of progs. Well it searches the CD and finds 34 mp3's! So I burn a cd (148 songs, 560mbs, 10 hours of play time). Its been playing them with its amazing headphones for the last two or three hours! Its great! It has 37hours of play time, 100seconds of anti skip (mp3, 75 or so of standered cd), plus it has a cool remote thingy so I can put the player on hold and have it safe in my bag and still be able to change tracks and stuff with the remote! If you want a good discman this is the one! Wow!

I smile everytime I see the readout detect 148 songs! I'm going to make a new cd tonight and really fill a cd up!

Congrats Bob .. glad that you like it dude
I bought new one for my sister last week (also Panasonic)
It is great really .. but i wouldn`t like to borrow it and listen to it for one silly reason.
The reason is that i can not forward the MP3 song (seek)!!
Sometimes i like to repeat a small part of the song, so without backward feature i have to listen to the song from the beginning to reach the part i like most ...

Thats why i`m still on MD which is also great ...
