Advantages: Mega light, easy to use

Disadvantages: No 'last listened' memory, easy to lose!

I initially bought this for my 6 year old daughter without checking quite how small it is! It is literally the size of half a mars bar! This is brilliant for the gym and for travelling but for kids who are prone to losing things under piles of teddy bears- not so good! I bought the red one which is a nice colour, it comes with a very short lead to connect it to a pc or laptop. It is so short that it just hangs in the air off my desktop while it charges. I prefer having an electrical charger as sometimes it is not feasible to travel with a laptop but you may still want to recharge it. I chose the Sandisk as it is compatible with Audible which is really the best way to buy Audiobooks. I have loaded it with 10 unabridged long books (140 hours of book!) and it is not yet full which is great. Like most micro products it is a bit tricky at first to press the right buttons but the screen is clear and the layout intelligent. The sound quality is fine although you need to turn it up quite high to drown out any outside noise such as traffic. One downside compared to bigger MP3 players is that if you pause a track and go to something else, on your return it goes back to the beginning. You would need to remember where exactly you had paused before though this is only an issue really with audiobooks.
All in all good value for money and a great choice for audio on the move.

Summary: Light, adequate storage and easy to download to.
