"Good iPod alternative" on by tech_junky48
Pros: Video playback, user-replacable battery, large screen, cheaper than iPod
Cons: center button feels cheap, hard to delete preloaded songs
Summary: Great mp3 player! I actually use it with Napster To Go, but I had Best Buy gift cards and they were sold out of all other e200 series aside from the Rhapsody version. Good sound quality, and, unlike some, I enjoy the tactile scroll wheel. Screen is bright, and the battery life on the user-replaceable lithium-ion battery is long. I will admit, however that the center button feels cheap and moves around a lot. Also, I had to call SanDisk customer service in order to delete the preloaded songs [Oh, when you delete the preloads, the names of individual songs are alpha-numerical code (eg. BF133952EB) so it is nearly impossible to delete only certain songs that you dislike.] The customer service people were very helpful. Overall, a well-designed mp3 player with few flaws.
