Watch out - no auto shutoff
I was looking for a walkman to play my old tapes.

Fine as a cassette player, but not so good for radio.
The Panasonic RQ-CR70V has served me well enough for the past 2.5 years even with a few bumps and drops. Now the player has literally bit the dust due to a bad accident, but I'd hesitate to buy another same model. Mainly I used it for listening to TAPES of radio news/info (talk) shows, at my convenience when biking, walking, puttering, etc. It is a great value overall, and has been durable. But I need to operate it by feel (thus no MP3 player will do), and that's where the radio operation disappoints. My ratings, in comparison with older Sony Walkmans I've had:

barely functional, not ergonomic
| The front panel operations require a minimum of 2 button presses. After a few months of ownership, both of my units became intolerably unresponsive to all but the hardest button pressing and multiple tries. This defeats the whole purpose of the portability and convenience. No pros listed here, others have done that. |
