Most Critical Review

Seemed like a good deal, but.......

SanDisk Sansa 8GB View MP-3 Player with FM Radio and Mic
SanDisk Sansa 8GB View MP-3 Player with FM Radio and Mic

Pros: The video playback capability is great. I loaded some music videos using the sansa media converter and easily played them back on a 32 inch LCD flat panel TV. I got the video-out cables from the internet. The picture quality was very good. I was excited!

Cons: After a few days the Sansa View stopped being recognized by my computer. I consulted the Sandisk forums for the View and determined that I had the "black circle of death" failure and would need to return the unit. Other reviews had warned of the poor quality of the View as a refurbished item, but the price induced me to try it.

Overall Review: I am returning the View for a replacement since I really like its video capabilities. I am hoping the second time around will be better. But the price is seeming less attractive as I have to pay the return shipping and spend the time to repack the View and get it shipped. I will update my evaluation of the View when I get my replacement.
