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.

Lookin’ Good with Griffin’s Reflect iPod Case
Posted by Lolita Beckwith Categories: Accessories, Music, Portable Audio / Video,
Yes, there are myriad iPod cases out there with all kinds of bells and whistles, but if you’re as vain as we are, boy have we got a case for you. It’s the Griffin Reflect, a polycarbonate shell with a mirrored chrome finish. The cool part? When the backlight shuts off, the display disappears so only the wheel shows—and the case is now a handy mirror! Fortunately, the Reflect also has a matte rubberized back to prevent slippage. Available for 2G nano, 5G and SanDisk Sansa for $24.99 USD. Apparently we’re not the only ones diggin’ ourselves, as the Reflect is currently on backorder.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gizmatic, Short Bytes, CES, CES 2007, Features, Portable Audio / Video, Videocasts,
We look at SanDisk’s first PMP, the Sansa View in this episode. The device has a 4-inch widescreen 640x480 display, and 8 GB embedded flash memory which provides for about 16 full-length movies. Even better, it has a full-size SD slot so you can add another 8 GB of memory to the unit. It’s also extremely thin, and feels great in the hand. It gets about 4 hours of video playback, and has a removeable battery, allowing you to add a higher power battery if you like. Available in March for $299 USD.

SanDisk’s Sansa View comes with 8GB of flash memory and the ability to output at up to 1080i when it’s not playing back video (of various, capable codecs, though we don’t have specifics yet) on its 4-inch screen. Expect up to 4 hours of video playback and around 10 hours of audio, basic PlaysForSure support and a $299 price tag come later Q1 when it’s released.
We’ll try for some hands-on time if we can track one down on the show floor.

SanDisk Launches Sansa e280 8GB Flash-based DAP
Posted by Yuan Zhao Categories: Music, Portable Audio / Video,
With so many purported “iPod killers” these days, one wonders if any company will ever be able to take down the legendary iPod line. SanDisk, a distant second to Apple in the portable music player market, announced a new member to their Sansa line on Monday, the e280. The e280 Sansa player offers 8GB of storage with a built-in microSD slot for an additional 2GB. At a starting price of around $250, roughly equal to that of the high-end nano, the new Sansa poses a potential problem for Apple by offering a product with a similar form factor with many enhancements. The lower-end versions of the Sansa player also received price cuts.
These upgrades are intended to help boost the company’s market share, which currently hovers around 10%; however, SanDisk is a top supplier of flash based storage and has a distinct advantage over Apple in terms of pricing. Their new releases come at a time when speculation about a revised iPod nano with larger storage, among other features, is at an all-time high. Regardless, it remains to be seen if SanDisk can in fact depose Apple.
