Rugged, Water Resistant Sony 'MP3 Player'

  October 21st, 2004



Sony is about to begin shipping its latest indestructible tank, the $230 NW-S23 S2 Sports Network Walkman. The two-ounce, four inch long player is water and shock resistant, and since it’s entirely solid state it’s also skip-proof, which is a really nice bonus for joggers. There is also an included armband so it doesn’t accidentally fall out of your pocket while running either.

While there is no recharging capability, the NW-S23 will still last for up to seventy hours on a single AAA battery. The 256MB of storage provided can hold about 170 songs encoded at 48kbps using Sony’s proprietary ATRAC3 format, and is compatible with songs downloaded from Sony’s online music service.
