SanDisk Sansa m230 512 MB MP3 Player (Blue) Reviews
More Picture
No, this MP3 player doesn't have all the bells and whistles of an iPod. It just plays your music, but the sound quality is fantastic. The durability is wonderful. It's lightweight and easy to use. If you're looking for an MP3 player that sounds great and is very affordable, this one is for you. It may not be able to do things such as tell your horoscope or make you a pizza like the more expensive models, but it does its work and does it well! Good buy and highly recommended.

Great with the armband - D. Jefferys - Philadelphia, PA USA
I've been using the Sansa now for a little over a year, mostly while I'm out riding a bike using the armband. I've worn it in the pouring rain on more than one occasion and it survived in addition to being hit with heat, cold and/or sweat. I use it for listening to the radio, music or occasionally audiobooks. The *only* think I wish I could figure out is how to fast forward within a track (very helpful for long audiobook tracks). Other than that, I totally love it.
