The new Sony NWZ-W252 Walkman is exactly what you need for active training. Since everything is contained in the headphones, you don’t need to worry about a headphone cord getting caught on gym equipment. It’s not a pretty site when a headphone cord snags while pumping your arms hardcore on the elliptical machine. For those of you that love training outdoors rain or shine, the new Walkman is also water resistant. I just wish it came in the classic Sony Sports yellow. Retail $59.95
“Use the included USB cable to get up to 90 minute charge in just 3 minutes. With an impressive total battery life of up to 11 hours, the W252 is ready when you are.”
I love everything I am reading about this fun little gadget! It only takes 3 minutes to charge up to 90 minutes…. no messy headphone cord…. super chic-looking… what’s not to like?
I exercise on the elliptical and treadmill every week and one of the things I always struggle with is that pesky cord getting in my way. Every now and then, I’ll accidentally snag the cord with my finger and next thing I know the earbuds are jerked right out of my ears… which is really frustrating when you’re “in the zone.” I can totally see myself using the Walkman when I am working out on the elliptical – so glad to know about this cool product!
