"Can't Stop The Rock"
I got this as a replacement for my Ipod as I couldn't afford to buy a new one and was ready for something new and different. Over all I think it is a great MP3 player but there are a few things I don't like about it.I recommend you read the basic list of things for a somewhat better idea of the product.

Note to reader: There are several versions of this player,YOU WILL NOT KNOW WHICH UNTIL YOU BUY ONE. Any thing with V1 next to it or mentioned means it is something that sucks about the version one (which I got stuck with,but not that it is a big deal).

Design:
Pros:
-Same dimensions iPod just thicker
-Larger screen
-Compact
-User changeable battery :)
-upgradable memory (micro sd cards)
-cool blue led turn wheel
-Voice recording
-RECORDABLE FM radio
-Supports pictures and video

Cons:
-Because of the turn wheel the buttons are hard to press and are sometimes unresponsive
-Only UP To 2G sd cards (V1)
-Battery life is good but not as good as iPod
-large record button that can get in the way

Quality:
Pros:
-Durable build
-EXCELLENT SOUND QUALITY HANDS DOWN
-Bright color display (adjustable)
-Good video playback and picture viewing

Cons:
Slow start up and is slow between menus(lags) (V1)


Settings and Features:
Pros:
-Display brightness adjustment
-USB modes (for manual management or Synchronizing)
-Very good EQ
-Recordable radio
-Voice recording
-Anything recorded can be extracted as a MP3 file

Cons:
-V1's can't disable "Record" button
-No formatting or file deletion on the Sansa E260

"Excellent purchase for the price (or any price)"
I purchased this item out of necessity, but found that it was the ideal single-purpose device. It doesn't surf the Web, it isn't suited to watch full-length movies. If you want to listen to audiobooks, music or, the radio this works great! I haven't found a reason to use the voice recorder, but I like having the option available should I need it.

"Lasted a year and a half"
Great for the price - I played this thing EVERYDAY for about a year and a half, dropped it, lost it, found it, kicked it (accidently), spilled beer on it, and god knows what else, It was a real trooper. I had a cheapo case and a real good set of earbuds (went through 3 sets) - when it finally petered out. It only has 250MB available when after I emptied it. I just ordered the 4GB Fuze, and going to get the micro card, since it's new tech. I think I'll take better care with the new one. .....but for $60, we'll just have to see!

"Great mp3 Player"
I love the mp3 player. But I didn't know I had to install updates in order to make it work properly.
¤

"Designed to Fail; I should have known!"
It worked OK for about two weeks, then the music I had loaded onto it started skipping and popping. Songs even began to disappear! I tried to reload music and noticed mysterious unremovable files and folders in the player. Finally the firmware that runs the player crapped out. When I tried to find the firmware on Sansa's website it had been discontinued or made unavailable. So this all was an $85 education in hard knocks. Never again will I buy anything made by Sansa.
