[net.audio] info wanted on the 'CD walkman' and a small gripe on net.audio

Well, gee, I unsubscribed from net.audio about a year ago amidst
a swarm of 'CD vs LP' and 'ears vs lab instruments' flames.  Now
I'm back with a question, and gee, guys, haven't you found ANYTHING
else to talk about since last summer?  Gawd, people are still beating
their brains out on those same topics.

Well.  The question:  Anyone have any experiance with Sony's 'CD walkman'?
I think it's cute, cheap, and it got good reviews for tracking and reproduction
accuracy.  "Better than some table models costing lots more" was I think the
way one reviewer put it.

What a deal!  I can connect it up to my Sanyo 100 Watt amp in my van, carry
it on my belt (I don't do that, near here someone was hit BY A TRAIN whilst
plugged into one of those idiot boxes.) and use it in my home system as well.

I do not intend to abandon good old fashion LP's either.  But for $250, startup,
I might be able to invest in both media.

Comments?  (By mail, please.  I'll summerize if anyone else is interested.)
