Hello all. Can anyone tell me the difference between a Sony WM-10 and WM-20?

It is the same Walkman.
For the U.S. market has been renamed WM-20 to WM-10
Why ,do I not.
Perhaps it was because ,give another product from Sony with a similar name

There are the little Sony Walkman Speakers SS-WM20

Thanks for the info. I thought they looked identical. Aiwa also had different model numbers for identical models which were sold in America.

The same holds for the WM-F10 it is same as WM-F20 , WM-10II it as WM-30

and WM-10RV also gives it as WM-40.

The belt (Sony 3-315-405-00, now officially NLA ..no longer available) is a 49mm dia thin (0.7/0.8mm) square cut belt that is common to these models:

wm10/20/30/10II , wm F10/F10II/F30, wm w800 and also wm F15/F13 and F65

and don't worry...if you know where to look belts are still very much available
