The Walkman is a popular Sony brand used by the company to market its portable audio players, and is synonymously used to refer to the original Walkman portable personal stereo player. The original Walkman brought about a change in music listening habits, allowing people to carry their own choice of music with them.
The first Walkman was a transistorized miniature portable cassette tape player developed by a German inventor. The first Sony Walkman stereo was sold in 1979 as the Soundabout. Sony co-founder Akio Morita created the name Walkman, and until recently he was also credited with the invention of the personal stereo. However, Sony has recently acknowledged the claims of Andreas Pavel, who created and patented a similar device, the stereobelt, in 1977. After 30 years of highly financed court battles against Pavel, Sony came to an out-of-court settlement in 2003.
