Long before the iPhone©, there was the Walkman. The Walkman was a device for listening to music. You could also move with a Walkman and listen to music. Walkmans were very popular with young people.

The Walkman by Sony was called the WM-DD. It was small and had disc drive technology. That means: It played music well.
