The one I bought was brand new. It's been on charge for 12 hours now. It won't turn on, the battery is completely dead and won't take a charge. I think I am going to stick to my 8-track.

Urunu alalý 1 ay oldu.
Aslýnda ipod nano sahibiydim.
Ama bu ürünü görünce ve özelliklerini ipodda elde etmek icin bir ipod parasi daha harcamak gerekirdi herhalde.
Radyosu dünyanýn her yerinde çekebilecek özellige sahip, kayýt yapabiliyor olmasý çok çok 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

I am returning my product after a frustrating weekend . I haven't had the product for even a week yet and the drive is fried ! I was very careful with it but now my computer won't even recognize the Sansa when I plug it in . It tells me to delete 6 mb but I am unable to do this because i cannot pull the music file up !
Do not waste your time with Sansa products ! They are GARBAGE ! Even calling , Sansa's , tech support will do no goos as they will have you do the same thing over and over with no sucess . I wasted an hour and a half on the phone with them !

I recently bought this sansa at Best Buy, and I very much regret the purchase. I was just goint to Best Buy because I was looking into buying some sort of MP3 player (not necessarily an ipod because they are a lot more expensive than other brands) to hold about 4 GB of music. When telling this to one of the employees, she pretty much talked me into buying a Sansa e260. She definitely had very good reasons for getting a sansa over an ipod nanos: sansa's are a lot cheaper for the same amount of storage capacity, sansa's are more durable than nanos, sansa's have an FM tuner included and nanos don't...the list goes on and on. A big deal for getting an mp3 player was being able to charge it on the go because I'm going on a lot of trips this year and I'm not always gonna have access to a computer. Even though Sandisk does not make a charger specifically made for the Sansa, the employee at Best buy assured me that I could buy a Griffin brand wall charger made for an ipod and it would charge it. I guess I made a mistake on my part howeve because I bought the sansa with the wall charger in the beginning of July, right before leaving on vacation. After charging the sansa right when I got it, it stayed charged all week (to avoid having to charge it all the time, I set the backlight on dim and had it turn off after 5 seconds) into my vacation. After a couple days of long car rides, my sansa needed to be charged so I plugged it in correctly to my wall charger and left it to charge overnight. Unfortunately, nothing happened and my mp3 died. I coulnd't get it to turn on or do anything the rest of the trip. I even went to walmart during my vacation to try a new charger to see if it was just the charger but it failed to charge with it. This is when I knew that this thing was a piece of crap and I was disappointed because I had no music for the rest of my vacation.
Pros -
*long battery charge if you don't always leave the backlight on
*FM tuner
*good sound when using good ear phones (more about that in the cons)
*easy to load music onto using my already organized music library on window's media player
*very durable and fit well in my hand
*easy to get around (I liked how all of the menus were organized)
Cons -
*wouldn't charge with a wall charger!!! (although, when reading some of the reviews on here, I guess a wall charger worked for them)
*adding songs to the "Go List" is annoying because you have to play each song you want to add individually
*the ear phones that come with them have horrible sound and don't fit in my ears. Also, the little foam things that cover the ear phones fall off so easily.
It's too bad though because I really liked my sansa and how it worked overall. I'm getting an ipod nano soon though because I'm done dealing with crap. Now I know why ipods are more expensive. It's also nice how you actually can find all of the accessories you need for ipod anywhere.
