I am tracking one on the bay right now. Anyone know about these and perhaps have some specs? I can't seem to find any decent screen shots. Thanks!

By the time the Walkman's got into those upper number ranges my experience is they were all pretty much the same. Walkman Central doesn't list this unit, as there were so many minor variations as Sony kept producing them.

Well shoot. I'm still gonna keep my eye on this one in case it goes cheap :-D.

I really want a good walkman, but their hard to find and when they do show up on ebay, they go for $150 or more.

I have these -FX models: WM-FX141, WM-FX193, WM-FX303 & WM-FX323 and they're all pretty good, basic units. The best ones were 80's and they go for a penny or two. But when it came to Walkman-type units, Sony, some Aiwas, or nothing else.

CTRL-ALT-PRNT SCRN (to the right of F12 on most keyboards) and paste it in Paint or a word prosessor or Photoshop etc or right click and save picture as...

If you cannot post it as a URL save it and attach it. If the picture will not allow right clicking you will have to save the screen shot.

I ended up winning this one for $7 (including shipping).

Works great, a system reset was all it took to fix the problem or mis-matched button commands. (ie hitting play fast forwards the tape, stop rewinds, etc.)
