Also, and again at WAL-MART, I bought a Sony cassette adapter for the car. Our van (1992) only has a cassette player. I plugged the adapter into the headphone jack and it works great! Again, about a $10 investment. (Wal-Mart is GREAT!) Just make sure to turn down the sound on your player to at least half if not a little lower or it will really distort your sound. You adjust the volume through the car stero, not the player. Again, I don't need to carry the adapter around, it just stays in the cassette slot.
Do you really need to carry the charger around? Just wondering, maybe you do. The only time I need my adapter is when I'm out of town for a few days.

I do question some of the "negative" reviews. If you put them on backwards they probably WON'T stay in place very well. But, like another reviewer said, they do a great job of blocking out outside noise as well.
