The first Walkman holds certainly in my ears. Is actually waterproof, so can not be held by welding affected. Good also that the cable is otherwise rumbaumelt of waistband or sleeve, constructively of course missing. Very good also the sound. Only minus, there can be no other headphones are used, for example, to get more bass. Can be neglected. Operation is not quite as intuitive and secure, unlike IPod. Man needs something to feel the desired function. Especially when running it takes a little longer. This restriction is small but outweighed by the secure fit and the wide range of applications again. So five stars
