Hi, Actually it should be capitalized because it�s a trademark for a portable stereo cassette player by Sony, I think. Buts it�s commonly know as walkman/s.
Enjoy. |

The capitalisation depends, as the term �walkman � can substitute for �portable stereo/tape player �, because the huge market share made the two synonymous - same as throwing a frisbee, googling something, taking an aspirin, drinking from a thermos...
