Genius move on their part, unlike the ipod, the play button is on top and now the menu botton is now on the bottom. This is nothing like an ipod.

I like the new Sansa player, mostly because at 8 GB flash memory storage you can hold quite a lot of music on the player along with the podcasts you can load and erase off the player on a regular basis.

It sure is a nice looking player, but the major problem for SanDisk, Microsoft, Creative, or anyone else who seriously wants to take on Apple and the iPod is the issue of iTunes. As has been noted many times here and elsewhere, a lot of people now have a lot of money invested in iTunes songs with Apple's proprietary codec. Very few people are going to surrender that big investment and switch players. And, it will only get worse when movies are downloaded through iTunes. Someone needs to figure this out!
