Ta Tone, they're reasonably priced as well. Can you organise podcasts easily on them?
As long as you don't need the Walkman itself to go online and grab podcasts (it can't - no Wifi), I'd not hesitate to recommend it!
I manage it by plugging it into my laptop (charger doubles as a USB cable) and it is browsable in Windows - then you can drag, drop, paste, whatever, the player won't care, it'll play it. If this process is acceptable to you, then go for it!
LOOOADS of audio options too. Plus the hack I installed puts back the FM radio
Love this thing. Tangible buttons on the side - it is touchscreen but reaching into my pocket to skip or pause without looking is boss
