Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Sony and the other big name portable audio makers did not often send their most sophisticated models to the US market.
What do you like about this subject?  There were thousands of walkman (and walkmanlike) products marketed after 1979... many had very innovative features, and many are very rare today.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I still have many on my "holy grails" list... and I have pictures of thousands of models as well as owning over 450 walkmans myself.
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  Sony will not release a listing of all the models they have manufactured... new and unknown ones surface almost monthly, making the search very interesting!

2008-08-16  Walkman question I have seen several of them on ebay, but not recently... they were promo items, only made one year as far as I know. As for the value, it is hard to say. I just asked the forum at stereo2go.com, you...
