SanDisk - Sansa e260 MP3 Player Review

I recieved the sansa e60 as a christmas present and at the time i believe it was around $170 for the 4gb version.

pros: has many features:

- fm radio

-video

-photobook

-recorder (can record both voice and radio)

-rhapsody enabled for easy mp3 transfer with service

-scroll wheel, like an ipod

-album covers upload with songs

-custom sound you set yourself

 cons:

-Playlists. This comes with pre-loaded playlists, complete with terribly cheesy names and worse music. if you do not want to subscribe to rhapsody, the only playlist you can set up is the "on the go", which is set from the mp3 player itself and not your pc... its time consuming, and i would like to have multiple playlists for genres/moods, rather than one set one that i have to change constantly.

-You can purchase a micro memory card to add space to the player, however this was much more difficult to do than it should have been, and my player went on the fritz shortly thereafter, and would not recognize or play all songs. There may have been updates since then, as at the time this was still relatively new and may have had bugs to smooth out.

 Summary:

Still a good player, although with the lack of options with playlists it would have been worth it to save for something with more functionability. Still a good price for the amount of features.
