>I can't tell you how many things I've seen with "no user-serviceable parts inside" stamped on the case. Tain't necessarily so.

Does your battery
powered Sony Walkman say
not to open it?

Does your battery
powered TV remote say
not to open it?

It's bizarre design
(to say the least) to design
a battery thing

without one of those
slip off battery covers
for easy changing.

Those easy slipon covers often break and fall off. They're a nuisance.

The point is that the battery is no maintenance, rechargable and long lasting (which it is, despite this shocking "news" story). The point is not having a detatchable battery pack and clunky transformer lost somewhere in the house. The point is to have the unit charged and ready to go when they put in their music files.

Sales seem to indicate people like that. YMMV.

Does your Sony Walkman have a RECHARGEABLE barrery??? Or do you have to buy replacements frequently.

Does your battery powered TV remote say not to open it?

Same question...
