Sony SRF59SILVER (SRF-59Sil) Portable AM/FM Walkman Radio

For years Sony has helped pioneer the road in the consumer electronics market. From the early days where "Listening on the go" was just wishful thinking, to modern times when just about every phone is a music player, Sony has always had their sights set on what was next. In 1979 Sony shocked the world with the very first portable music player, the Walkman. For the first time in history, people were able to enjoy their favorite tunes on the go. And since the Walkman was introduced in 1979, we have never looked back. We have been spoiled over time with the increasingly fast evolution of electronics, and the constant demand for the next big thing. Sony has managed to stay right on pace with this ever changing industry, without losing their grasp on what won our hearts in the first place. The joy, and convenience of portable music and radio is now a standard in most of the world today.

Flash Forward a little over 30 years, and here we are again. Right where Sony started this legacy, the Walkman continues to thrive as if it will never go out of style. Granted, the new Walkman are just a little bit smaller, and sure they weigh a little less too, but the Walkman lives on. With AM/FM tuning and up to 100 hours (Yes, you read that right!) off of just 1 "AA" battery, you might end up taking the long way home, or actually going that extra mile. That is sort of efficiency that inspired NASA. Well, maybe not. But it certainly set the bar high for all the rest of the manufacturers who are still chasing a Sony perfection after over 30 Years.
