Movies on the go
One of the best things that I have ever purchased. Its easy to use and understand. Drag and drop Avi files to the take TV USB drive plug into the TV module and watch your movie easy as that. Highly recommended.

Take TV
product is fun and works nice.The only draw back is that it isn't playing .mp4 files

perfect to watch divx on your tv
Bought the take tv this summer and it is easy to set up and use. It also works great with (Ubuntu) Linux so no problem transferring the files. Memory of 8 gb is sufficient if you regularly watch and swap files with the computer. No problems playing subtitle files. I only play divx files and that works perfect. Remote only works if you are near the player. For the price I would not hesitate to buy it, sure beats all the hassle of burning all your videos on a disc!

Great Device!!!
The Goods:
I bought this item about 6 months ago and so far has worked perfectly! I'm not gonna lie I download a lot of RS movies and most of them come ready to use in avi. I know there are a million different types of avi formats but it seems this little device plays them all. I can't tell you how nice it is to download a move then watch it on my 52" plasma in seconds. I tried the cord thing form my pc and got static and horrible audio. The audio on this is perfect by the way. I have it hooked up to my surround sound and it's great! Oh and one other thing is I kept hearing people say the remote sucks. I have a fairly big room and it works just fine. You do need to hold the button down for half a second but if you do that I haven't had any problems with any buttons. The batteries seem fine I use mine a lot and have had no problems. Another great thing about the product is it's really only 8GB USB drive. I have a few other 4GB drives so I don't need it but I did have a large 7gb file I didn't want to rar so I just grabbed my sandisk. IT works just like a thumb drive.

The probs:
There are however a few downfalls. Like I said before 90% of my stuff is RS downloaded so not always the best quality. Sometimes the audio will not sync up with the video. I can usually fix this by stopping the movie them pressing the play button again to resume the film. Out of the 100 movies I've watched only a few have had this problem. And yes I double check on my PC to make sure it's not just a sync problem. The audio is fine on my PC. One other minor problem is when there are a lot of different things on the screen sometimes the audio and video will get choppy. For instance I was watching Planet Earth series and when a huge flock of like a million birds filled the screen the video/audio got choppy like it couldn't process all the info.

All in ALL: Great device. I know the bad sounds bad but I'm telling you its a great product. If sandisk can solve the problems with the video getting choppy and the auido sync it would be perfect product. Oh and maybe play mp4 as well. If you download movies from the internet and want to watch them on your big screen get this product. I've used a bunch of other crap and this works 10x better than all of them

Not many video format
My main problem was that it did not work with any video format.
Also the remote did not work properly.

Love this Clip
I have used this player quite a bit since I got it. No problems so far. I think the controls are very easy to use. I am happy with this clip!

Sansa clip 4GB
The operation of the Sansa Clip is much better than expected. For a player that small, it provides all that I would want from it. The only disapointment are the earphones. Invest in a decent pair of earbuds, and you will be impressed.

Small, easy to use, great buy!
If you don't need album covers or photos this is a terrific player. The sound (equlization possible)is very good. The small size and effective clip are plusses.

I like it
Some times I have some difficulties in plugging it with the pc, but generally it is good.
Am so happy with it.

Sensa 4 Gig Silver is great!
The player is very nice. It has a small size and I usually clip it to my clothes. It has been great for running and has an FM radio and voice recording. It is full featured and supports playlists and is easy to operate. Battery is charged via USB and although it takes a while to charge it lasts a long time. Good volume too when you are in a noisy environment. With four Gig I can get about 800 songs on it which is plenty for me. Highly recommend.

So-So product, bad customer service from SanDisk
While it worked, this was a great product. When I purchased this product I was interested only in an mp3 player (no need for video too) and the Clip looked perfect. My Clip (blue) was used for approximately 2 - 2.5 hours per day during my lunch hour and during my workout. I purchased in mid-January and by late August the battery malfunctioned and refused to power on the player. I took a few trips around the internet to find any way to solve the problem that would not end with having to contact SanDisk's customer service. For my particular problem, warranty replacement was the only cure. It took three weeks of emails to customer service to finally get them to agree that the power issue would not be fixed by multiple downloads/installs of the latest firmware and agree to the return of my product for replacement. Then just over a week after I shipped my Clip to SanDisk I received yet another email that it would be 7 to 10 business days before I received the replacement product.

This little player was wonderful when it worked, but I won't be buying another SanDisk mp3 player, that's for sure. SanDisk customer service does not just email you, they send you an email telling you that you have received a message in your SanDisk eBox at their website and if you just follow the links you will be able to read the message and follow the appropriate customer service suggestions to repair your product. The eBox was only a slight annoyance compared to waiting days for any kind of response in the first place. And the suggestion that I repeat (three times) steps I had already taken in regard to the firmware and a soft reset and then reformatting the product got pretty annoying too.

If you buy one and it works (and keeps working) great for you. If you buy one and the battery fails, forget customer service and just buy a new product. (I went with the Creative Zen.) I expect a new Clip from SanDisk (per the warranty) to arrive soon and plan to keep it in the box. If nothing else, it's at least a pretty product.

old dog new tricks
This my second mp3 player. My first was so complicated I had to throw it out. This one is a breeze. I download to media player, move to sync and transfer. I have music to garden, fly, and walk the dogs. The sound is good. The earphones are okay. The size is perfect.

Great player
This player is easy to operate, the charge is long, plays excellent.
Kids love it.

Great Product
Very easy to use. I purchased it mainly for audio books. I especially enjoy the sleep mode.

Great For the Price - Not Perfect
I've had my blue SanDisk 2GB for a couple of months now and I really like it. You will not find a better 2GB MP3 player on Amazon.com for under . It has many different features and modes (It has FM radio, but I would LOVE an AM radio feature on it as I listen to quite a bit local sports talk radio). However, that is besides the point. The only two things I don't like are:

1) The USB cord is very short and it connects extremely tightly to my Sandisk. So much so that I really have to use quite a bit of force to disconnect it from the cord.

2) It seems to take an awfully long time to charge the battery. My old MP3 player was a Creative Muvo and it charged rather quickly - plus it seemed that a charge on the MUVO lasted longer than a charge on this Sandisk.

Having said that, I do like it and would recommend it as an alternative to buying a more expensive iPod or MP3 player.

Good for a while...
My mom bought this for me for my birthday in 2007. It's been good until about 2 weeks ago. I had my USB setting on Auto Detect which supported folders, and now Auto Detect doesn't work on my computer so I've been forced to use the MSC or whatever which doesn't have folders. I have no problem with transferring music files (except for the mp3 or wav tags at the end of the song titles) but I can't find anything that I recorded so I can transfer it from my mp3 player to my computer. It would be good if MSC was fully covered in the pdf file they have but it's not so it's frustrating. I know a big problem I had also was that I would charge it but it seemed like the battery was uncharged even if I wasn't using it, which was just strange.

hey, it's nice.
the sansa c250 mp3 player i received, promptly, and have been enjoying since the beginning of sept.08 is my initial foray into the marvelous technology of personal and very compact music players. it's so easy to learn to use, recharges with a usb plug into any computer and it really does sound great (i purchased earbuds for comfort). i like it, especially, for the wma support (and now i've let the cat out of the bag); which many other player manufacturers are giving up on. i feel as if i should buy a couple of more and store them if i ever need another but i suppose i'll just stay with this one until it gives up the ghost. real good price and everything else about this little player i'm really like enjoying, dudes.

Not a quality product
So I got this product, and it worked great for a few months. Then all of a sudden sound stopped coming out of both ear buds, and would only come out of one. No problem I thought, I'll just get a different pair of ear buds. Nope....same issue. I don't know about you, but I don't like listening to things and having the sound in only one ear.

good player
very good little player. Had to get headphones though because buds were too big and uncomfortable for me.

Ok, but hard to use
Bought from Blueproton (via Amazon) got a version 2 of the c250, so sadly it is not yet compatible with the much better Rockbox firmware. [...]The player doesn't have it's own software appears automatically in Vista as a mp3 player (storage device). Making playlists is clunky. It's a lot like a 1st gen MP3 player, I would say skip unless it's selling for ~.

Just what I wanted
This little - and it is little - MP3 player is great. Easy to use and holds plenty of songs. You have all of the fancy listening choices. I did not want to spend alot of money and had a tons of cd's at home. It was great. Just download to your window Media player , sync and download. It took 30 seconds to download.

very nice player
easy to use, small and lite, perfect for runners and daily use. Sound quality is above average.
Mini USB very helpful, I use my Motorola razor charger for charging, did not nave to by any accessory. Does not require any additional software, drag and drop.... super...love it...usable as flash drive...
Very good for the money. Would be perfect if had memory expansion slot.

Very nice player!!!
The only con for this player is that you can't use it when it is charging connected to the computer.

a very functional, tiny, useful mp3 player
I have a 5th generation 80 gb. Ipod, but honestly I didn't like it since the first time I bought it.
-I don't use it's video capabilities. [Why would I? Converting all the video files took me ages, and finally I gave up... I have my pc, and tv to watch videos.]
-It's too big , even the new ones are not small enough to carry around all day long. especially if you're doing sports.
-It's dependency on iTunes, (which I find as a computer scientist like a virus sucking all your memory) makes me crazy. In a few months of using it I switched to yamIpod.

With the new 4gb Sansa player I've got:
Pros:
-It's very easy to upload files.
-It's very small.
-Battery charges quickly.
-The clip is useful.
-Sound is very nice. (I am using sony ear-buds)

Cons:
-The menu might be more intuitive.
-If it is the first time you connect to your computer, you might have to change it's connection preferences, to be able to upload files.

Great MP3 player for the money
This MP3 player by SanDisk surpassed my expectations. The Sansa Clip is easy to use, load music, search for music by artist or by album title. The FM radio is also a great feature. The built in clip makes it convenient to use during yardwork, play or exercise. I'm glad I made the purchase.....truly a great product!
