 Hmm, nice, but... July 2, 2006

I was really looking forward to this and when I got it I started having mixed feelings. It has a good size, feels sturdy but a bit on the heavy side. The interface is nice, easy to use, but as someone pointed out you cannot delete a file from the player, you must use the computer. The beautiful wheel gets on the way of the buttons, also pointed out by others, and though it is not very smooth it turns reasonably well unless you are trying to go through a lot of songs at once. Then there is the whole issue of only being able to charge it through an usb connection, together with the fact that it uses a proprietary cable and you can't just use one of the standard usb cables available on the market (ok, many players have the same issue...). One other concern are the openings for the microsd card slot and the cable connections that have no protection. Being able to add extra memory is a nice feature. It sounds good but the earphones that come with it are of low quality what brings me to the issue that you can't adjust the equalizer to your own settings; you have to use one of the preset options. The Sansa e260 is ok for adding some family videos to carry around, but seriously, who is going to watch a whole video in such a small screen? It is not the main purpose of the player; if you want to watch videos get a larger screen/larger storage video player. 4GB is a great amount of memory for music, that is why I bought it. Curious that the movies are .mov, a quicktime/apple standard, and yet it doesn't support mac, you can't even access it as a hard drive if you plug it into a mac.

This is my first MP3 player. I found it to be clear and easy to use. The only thing I found difficult was to make a brand new playlist other then the one pre programed into it. Other then that it is a great player with nice photo and video ability.
 Sanse e260 player June 29, 2006

There were a few qualities that I looked for in an mp3 player, portability, ease of use, and price.
Portability - it travels well and is surprisingly durable, a necessity for me
Ease of use - At first, I got confused by a couple of the menus but, after a couple of minutes, I was able to navigate through with no problems. I can port my files onto the player without having to use special software - another big point for me. My only gripe is with the ear buds as they never fit right in my ears, but that's hardly Sandisk's fault. I'll simply purchase something a little more flexible and smaller.
Price - after doing a comparison, I found this to be the best value for my money.
All in all, enjoyable so far.

Urunu alaly 1 ay oldu.
Aslynda ipod nano sahibiydim.
Ama bu ueruenue goeruence ve oezelliklerini ipodda elde etmek icin bir ipod parasi daha harcamak gerekirdi herhalde.
Radyosu duenyanyn her yerinde cekebilecek oezellige sahip, kayyt yapabiliyor olmasy cok cok iyi bir ozellik bence. Video kaliteside cok cok basarili.
Kullanimi da ipod kadar basit. Fakat menulerin ve opsiyonlarin biraz daha detaya ihtiyaci var. Birde urunun icinden cikan kulakliklar pek kaliteli degil
Best MP3 for Yahoo Music June 28, 2006
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
i have tried many MP3s over the years and this by far is the most iPod like. It works extremely well with the Yahoo Music subscription whereas others in the past have had many software issues. the memory expansion slot is a plus but with 4 gigs, you can get a load of songs on it anyway. the only thing i can find wrong is that it does not work well with Yahoo Music playlists. Extra steps are required to copy them over which isn't worth the time. But the extremely long battery life is worth the lack of playlist functionality.
