Sansa Clip + MP3 Player
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Portable Audio / Video,
SanDisk, maker of everyone’s favorite microSDs, released the Clip a while ago, hoping that people would warm up to playing MP3s off of their specially made music cards instead of going to iTunes. It didn’t exactly revolutionize the digital music industry, but the company is obviously still high on the idea, what with the release of the Sansa Clip +.
The Clip + is supposedly “one of the best sounding MP3 players on the market,” and it features the microSD slot, a one-inch OLED display visible under sunlight, an FM tuner with 40 preset stations, and even a microphone for voice recording. You should be able to get the Sansa Clip + now in 2GB ($39.99), 4GB ($49.99), and 8GB ($69.99) models in red, blue, or black. Amazon is selling them at a 13% discount.

CES 2008 Video: Sandisk’s Sansa View and Sansa Clip
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gizmatic, Short Bytes, CES, CES 2008, Features, Movies, Music, Podcasts, Videocasts,
Sandisk never fails to impress with their MP3 players. At CES they were showing off the Sansa View and the Sansa Clip. These new players show up Apple’s current lineup not only in features, but as well as in price. The view’s new hotness: available in capacities up to 32GB (flash based, not hard drive). The clip trounces the iPod shuffle by offering not only 4GB for the price of 1, but also throwing in a screen, FM tuner/recorder, voice recorder, and an equalizer. Both players are available now for half the price (and twice the features) that their Apple made counterparts command - perfect for the thrifty music lover in your life.

When it comes to the SanDisk Sansa TakeTV device, we’ve done an unboxing video and even show you how to set up the TakeTV in your home. In our latest video, we show you how the darn thing works. We have it hooked up already, so now it’s time to put some content on it and fire it up. Do note, the Sansa TakeTV does ship with a couple of sample video clips already on it in case you just want to test your setup.
Once we put some video files on it, we were able to watch some of them on the device - we forgot that the TakeTV doesn’t support high definition video, so those clips failed to play. Other than that, this is really a no brainer. There isn’t even a complicated menu system. You plug the device in to your TV, and you get a list of videos to play. Easy. Check it out, and let us know if there are any other questions we can answer for you guys.
2007 Holiday Gift Guide: SanDisk Sansa Shaker
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Features, Music, Portable Audio / Video, Kids,
If your children are anything like my three-year old son, then chances are that they are just as familiar with your gadgets as you are. They want to hold them, use them, mimicking you every step of the way. The thing is, gadgets aren’t the most affordable things in the world, and children don’t seem to understand that. This is where the SanDisk Sansa Shaker comes in - it’s a fully-functional flash MP3 player that is meant for little kids. SanDisk did a good job with this one too - just holding it you can tell it’s durable. It has two built-in headphone jacks for tandem enjoyment, as well as a speaker if you prefer your children not put on headphones. It’s called the Shaker because, when you sake it, you advance it to another track, shuffle-style. It is shaped perfectly for little hands, and has a couple of job wheels for volume and track selection. The device runs on one AAA battery, which will last for about 8 hours of playback. You can pick one up for $30, which holds 512 MB of content (about 120 songs) or opt for the $40 1 GB player, which will hold about 240 tracks. They are available in pink and blue.

The Disko iPod Case Lights Up Your Life
Posted by Lolita Beckwith Categories: Accessories, Misc. Tech, Portable Audio / Video,
Whether you’re bored with your current iPod case (you do have one, right?), want to liven up a party, or just in dire need of attention, we bring you the oddly-named Disko Case from Griffin. It’s polycarbonate shell protects your player, while colored LED lights surround the click wheel—and blink, flash and chase each other in any of five lighting sequences. Plus, the case is motion-sensitive, so it turns on automatically with movement. Available for the 5G and nano iPods, and also for the Sansa. Available in clear or black for $30 USD.

Bleeding Edge TV 170: SanDisk Sansa Connect Wifi Audio Player
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gizmatic, Short Bytes, Features, Portable Audio / Video, Videocasts, Wireless / WiFi,
The recently released SanDisk Sansa Connect has been all the rage recently with a few of our readers. We caught up with SanDisk in the pre-launch window of the hip Wifi-enabled MP3 player. Priced at $250 USD, this Sansa Connect has Wifi that makes good on the capabilities of the technology, creating a true wireless player, unlike the crippled Wifi featured in the Zune.
SanDisk Sansa Shaker: MP3 Player for Kids
Posted by Lolita Beckwith Categories: Portable Audio / Video, Toys,
Techie gadgets geared toward kids is a booming business, and SanDisk has joined the bandwagon with its Sansa Shaker MP3 player. Besides being awfully cute, the Shaker has a built-in speaker, two headphone jacks for sharing (awwww), and internal 512MB, which can be expanded with an SD card. White bands on the top and bottom have all the navigation controls. There’s also a mysterious “shake” feature, although SanDisk isn’t revealing what that is yet. We admit to being slightly uncomfortable with kids
using headphones at a young age, so parents may want to check out these headphones. The Shaker will be available soon, for $40 USD.
