1 out of 5 stars Don't Drop it!!!.......2005-10-01

I loved this discman, and it really is jog proof, just don't drop it!!! I only had it for a few months and I dropped it from maybe 3 feet and the top popped of and it no longer reads discs! I've had others that were half the price last longer!

4 out of 5 stars The Rock.......2004-11-20

I agree with what everyone else is saying about this cd player. Good sound, decent features, good anti-skip. I also wanted to stress how durable this player is. I've had it for about THREE AND A HALF YEARS now. During this time I've dropped it on cement, off the top of bunk beds, you name it... All buttons and features still work flawlessly. The case isn't even cracked. I was waiting till this thing stopped working to justify buying a mp3 player, but I'm tired of waiting. Phillips has me sold.

5 out of 5 stars A Great CD Player.......2003-07-29

This is a great CD Player for a number of reasons.

1 I play bass so with the digital dynamic bass boost I can really hear the bass.

2 I have dropped it a few times and there has never been any damage to it.

3 With the 45 Second Anti Skip you have to really try to get it to skip.

4 With some of my friends CD Players they take a second to go from being paused and to playing but with this CD player it plays instantly.

5 out of 5 stars This is the best discman I have ever came across!!.......2002-07-13

Now I know you must of read those bad comments about this discman, however, do you notice they all have one thing in comman? - the owners all dropped them... you really don't expect something to work as designed after you have damaged it!. Anyway, I had this discman for about a year now and so far it has NEVER given me any trouble. It works great and one of the pros is that it displays the battery level all the time which to me is quite good, since you would not want to leave home not knowing where the battery stands - other discmans only display the battery strength when it is really low. Apart from that, the bass is great and the cdplayer doesn't skip (weather the skip protection is on or off). Furthermore, it plays CD-R's outstandingly. I would recommend anyone looking for a great discman to buy this... you won't regret it ...

5 out of 5 stars Good value for your money.......2002-05-29

I've bought this discman primarily for it's car kit - it was a lot cheaper solution for listening CDs in the car, than "real" car CD player. It works perfectly, even on bumpy roads with ESP turned on.

I like to make my own CDs with favourite songs, so I record them all on 1-6x Teac CD-R. Philips has no problems whatsoever with those CDs. Also, I dropped it few times (2-3ft), and though you can clearly see scratches (on the transparent plastic cover), it works fine. Though, it looks pretty fragile, so be careful.

The only problem I've encountered is postion of Next and Previous (or F Fwd and F Bwd) buttons, which are "linked" and very near to Play and Stop buttons. So, instead of skipping the track, you could return it to the beginning, and when you drive, it's not really healthy to look at the CD.

Anyway, price is fine for what you get, and if I had to buy again - I would buy this player.
