 Sandisk connect mp3 player April 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very nice looking player, I like the slim shape of it too. but it is not without fault. To start off the screen protection has some glue on it, and damaged one side of the player. The installation cd for Yahoo Jukebox is garbage. It will not detect the player. And my system will freeze every now and then. So I had to use WMP to upload music to it. The battery will run out even when the player is off. The player gets hot after a while when on. The wifi was absolutly useless, while it detects and connects, I can't listen to internet radio. It says buffering on screen but never plays.
I owned an ipod nano, and the quality and usability makes the sansa connect look like a joke. It is a joke.
Dissappointing Tech support April 7, 2008

I bought this device about 3 months ago. Since then, the built-in speaker stopped working, and I have sound to the earphones on one channel only. I tried to contact tech support, but so far unsuccessful: The website provides a number to call, but it always says that "all circuits are busy". I also sent an email, but no response. Unless they improve their support I cannot recommend these devices.

I purchased this Sandisk Sansa Connect after a friend of mine showed me his. I really liked that it connected to Yahho Music Jukebox and would play Yahoo's radio stations and let you download songs you would hear,as long as you would purchase a montly subscription called To Go for $14.99! I already was paying for Yahoo Music Jukebox so I thought it would connect and download songs with my previous subscription! Wrong!! Yahoo Music would not let me upgrade my service to the TO Go service! I had to purchase a second subscription to do this($14.99)Even if you never have subscribed before,heres the kicker,Yahoo Music is discontinuing the service for this unit on June 1,2008 and this unit will no long have WiFi radio stations or be able to download. Yahoo Music has been sold to Rhapsody Music and this model(SanDisk Sansa Connect) is not compatable with their service!! Sandisk and Yahoo have knowed about this for awhile but are still selling this unit anyway!! This unit should be called Sansa DisConnect!!
 wifi works well March 22, 2008
wifi works as well as laptop or pc's usb wifi adapter. I connect to home stereo and have launchcast play - this works well, sounds good. Launchcast stations pretty good.
I don't recommend as only mp3 player for car, workouts or anyplace too noisy since this player's volume is too low (I have or have had about dozen players).
Battery is poor even with wifi off - avg about 6-8hrs.
Video is cool but a pain to convert and send.
