5 out of 5 stars Value was great for the cost   January 6, 2009
Simply put, this is a decent little Mp3 player. Nothing super flashy, but it seems to get the job done. I got this little device for 25 dollars on Amazon, and I don't think you can currently find another 2 GB player for near that price.


3 out of 5 stars san disk sansa 2GB m250 MP3 player   January 6, 2009
I would say this is just ok for the money.. I previously owned the ipod shuffle and thought this would be similar. I was wrong.. This is a totally different animal. You get what you pay for..
The on/off and volume controls are difficult to manipulate. The ear plugs do not stay in my ears. Stick with ipod....



1 out of 5 stars Does not work.   January 6, 2009
the player has stopped working. it freezes at the welcome screen and does not move ahead.

it worked okay in the first 2 weeks . the following week , it used to stop at a song . restarting the player worked.

a couple weeks later , the player froze at the welcome screen when started.
when it was working fine , it worked okay .
i have a 1 GB player 2 years ago of the same kind which still works fine.
Maybe i just got a faulty piece this time around



4 out of 5 stars timely delivery   January 6, 2009
It's a gift to a friend. He said it's enjoyable, but didn't say much. At least I know it was delivered timely.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect MP3 player   January 6, 2009
I own several Sansa MP3 players. I've never experienced any problems with this model. I especially like the long battery life, and like the fact that it uses "AAA" batteries rather than internal rechargeables. I use it for long walks and hikes, and just carry an exra "AAA" cell with me. It's easy to load songs into. I've been using one for 3 years and am still happy with it.
