13 years old boy from UK has switched from his iPod to original 1979 Sony Walkman. The most interesting output of this story is to see the difference regarding the features of such devices – they are not technology driven anymore, but content driven. For instance from the report: “I mistook the metal/normal switch on the Walkman for a genre-specific equalizer, but later I discovered that it was in fact used to switch between two different types of cassette.”

Check out complete review and head-to-head comparison of the devices on BBC.
