Great reliable MP3 player for those w/o too much musicJul 03, 2009
I bought my sansa 3 years ago, and it still works. :) this is a great mp3 player to get if you don't have a lot of music or care to carry around a lot as it only holds 8 GBs. Unfortunately for me that amount is wayyyyyy too little (forget even putting videos on it!). The mp3 player is pretty outdated in this day and age though but a nice little buy for what its worth.
Pros:
-durable, i've dropped it badly dozens of times and still works
-chic design
-great sound/video quality
-long lasting battery (at least 7 hours depending on your volume/brightness settings)
Cons:
-TAKES FOREVER TO TURN ON (16 seconds) ... maybe i'm just impatient but i hate it
-way too little memory for me; i need at least 20 GB
-has frozen numerous times but just screw off the back casing and take the battery out/put it back in and it will restart
-i hate the ugly blue menu but thats just my personal preference
-syncing has been inconsistently successful (most commonly album art doesn't make it, rarely but surely some mp3 files just won't transfer over, some artists/albums are STILL listed in my menu although i deleted them ages ago... the files are corrupt) and takes an annoyingly long time to sync files/delete files
-Rhapsody is so slow and laggy and takes forever to fully recognize and prepare for syncing w/ the device (prob 5 minutes at least)
-is too outdated and cannot use micro memory cards over 4 gb i believe if that... i bought a 16 GB memory card and it wouldn't recognize it. i had to try and reconfigure and reprogram my device but couldn't figure it out
 Awesome MP3!!!Jun 24, 2009
We own 2 of the Sansa 4GB MP3s and wanted a new SanDisk as well since we were so happy with the others. I thought these weren't available anymore because there are newer versions out there, but I was pleasantly surprised to find the 8GBs still available on Amazon. I quickly ordered another one and received it in 8 days. I have already downloaded 1100 songs on it in the past week using Rhapsody.
The sound is great, it's easy to use and downloading with Rhapsody is inexpensive and a breeze! The SanDisk also has a voice recorder, you can record off of the FM tuner, store videos and more. It is very sturdy as well and you can easily add memory to it with a micro SD card. My family absolutely loves this little MP3 player and will never switch back to iPod. This is one of the best purchases we have ever made!

Great valueJun 23, 2009
I just got this a few weeks ago and I'm very happy with it. I know the e200 series is by no means new, but retired rather, but it's a great music player for the price. The interface is easy to navigate even though the buttons around the scroll wheel are sometimes difficult to push. The overall design of the device is very attractive, with perfect compact size but enough mass to it that it's easy to hold onto, unlike the ipod nano. This is really like cheating, since you can get up to 16 gigabytes of memory through expansion without the bulky design of the mp3 players that have hard drives in them, like the ipod or the zune, which are just too big. Who needs 120gb anyway?
Pros:
-Great battery life. I've barely had to charge it three times since I got it two weeks ago.
-Simple, elegant, attractive design.
-Expansion slot for up to 16gigs of space w/out bulky size.
-Easy to hold onto, yet still compact.
Cons:
-Buttons around the scroll wheel can be difficult to push.
-You can't skip to a certain letter while going through the song list, you have to scroll all the way through down to 'f' or whatever it is you're looking for.
Overall, this product is a very good deal for what you pay, is reliable and sturdy, and even though it's a retired product line, Sandisk was ahead of the game when they made these. I recommend this product. A+

Nice while it lasts,,,,
Best thing I've bought in a long timeMay 30, 2009
I've owned mine for about a year now. It's traveled with me through Europe and the Middle East. I've dropped it several times without any damage. I use mine to listen to lectures, audio podcasts, old time radio shows. I have it on throughout the night, every night. It's worked great for me.
