Another device praised as the "smallest" and "thinnest" device at its release (October 1998), it is a "jacket case" style device with a "slot-in" type of disc loading.

Shipped with earbuds, remote (RFEV018P-SM), sidecar (RFA1136-H), gumstick, carrying case (RFC0045-K), and headphone clip (RFA0574-K).

Does not have AC adapter plug on device. It needs a DC in adapter (RP-WA10) in order to use the AC Adapter (RP-AC11D or RP-AK15, both are center positive 1.5v adapters).
