Almost perfect January 1, 2009
Pluses: Easy to use. Large capacity. Slim design. Does voice recording and playback just fine. Is NOT an ipod so you aren't tied down to proprietary formats and subscription services.
Minuses: Nothing works well automatically "synch"ing things to Windows Media Player including this item. Fortunately, there is another format that allows your computer to see the player as just another USB drive. That works great. Don't try to use this device with any automatic software or services. Just treat it as a pin drive that holds .mp3 files and things work just fine. Due to WMP's fixation on all things USB, it is also a good idea never to have it connected to your computer when WMP is running or your files start flying around in unpredictable ways.
The default mode (MTP -stupid mode) doesn't see your expansion cards - it says so right in the manual. You have to use stupid mode to use any of the automatic online services such as Rhapsody or if you want automatic "synch"ing to windows media player. Since I think all those automatic services are nightmares and detest all the automatic features of windows media player, this is only an annoyance for as long as it takes me to change the mode to regular USB mode (MSC).
My experience: I purchased one in April 2007. It lasted until December 2008 when it suddenly failed. I purchased a replacement and will likely purchase a spare for when it eventually fails. Problem with the newer versions of the firmware is that the option to turn off all that automatic "synch"ing now has to be initiated by turning it off, locking the device, pressing rewind, then connecting to your computer and releasing when it is recognized. Why not have me just rub my head and pat my belly while reciting the pledge of allegiance backwards? After that, the option to select between stupid mode (MTP) and regular USB mode (MSC)appears on the menu like it used to in the old firmware version.
Oh yeah. Did I mention it is NOT an ipod so you aren't tied down to services and formats that Steve Jobs is trying to cram down your throat?
 Great quality for the price. December 30, 2008
I bought one of these just last week, it works great and is still working perfectly.
It allows me to watch music video's, and listen to my favorite songs.
I don't have any regrets.
As Advertised December 29, 2008
This Sansa MP3 was exactly what I was looking for - easy to use & flexible enough to add more storage with the Micro SD 2 GB - it is easy to copy files to using your normal Windows Copy and delete functions - you might need to update your firmware in order to have the delete work correctly - that was the only issue I had!
Good overall music player December 29, 2008
The reviews I have read here are right on. The dial is a little clumsy, the buttons, a little hard to use, but not a big deal to me. The screen is very clear and construction seems good.
I would like more eq controls but most players, including the apple ones, have only 4 - 6 as well, so not a big deal. the interface is very user friendly.
Overall - Just another reason to ask, "why would you spend over twice the money on an iPod???"
Sandisk mp3 player and radio December 28, 2008
This unit works as advertised! I am enjoying my music on the move. My only complaint with this purchase is that I did NOT get any print document on how to access and use the various functions of it. After getting the unit to play it is a great device. I am preparing to use the SanDisk mini card to expand the amount of music that I have available for use.....
