SanDisk Sansa Clip+ (8GB, black)

Pros: With the SD card, it has 16 GB or more storage which is important if you have many audio books. It automatically returns to where I was in the audiobook when I turned it off. Small & with clip so can wear it when shopping,cleaning, exercising, etc.

Cons: It began to malfunction after 1 year of frequent use. The small size is convenient except that it makes it very easy to misplace. I wish the 8 G came in red. The screen is small so it makes it more cumbersome to go through the menu

Summary: I really like this Clip+ since it is so good for audio books and the small size is so convenient. I use it more frequently because of these factors. For the low purchase cost, I think having to replace it after a year is not bad. I understand San Disk has a 1 year warrantly, but mine lasted for a few weeks beyond 1 year.
