Digital camera reviews of SanDisk Sansa c250 2 GB MP3 Player (Black)
Digital camera Review: Disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars
Usually when you purchase an item like this one, you receive a manual or owner's guide that gives detailed instructions on how to use it. This is not the case with the Sansa c250 mp3 player. I have had to hunt for information on the Internet just to get things done. Information that's missing:
1. Albums folder: what is its function, how can I populate it?
2. MTP mode: the only reason I know about this "mode" is because I found out about it on a few sites that have help forums. I don't know what MTP stands for, and the message "USB connected MTP" does not show up when I go into Auto-detect mode and then connect the c250 to the PC.
3. How about telling the user what MTP nd MSC mean? It would be nice to be told this stuff, especially if you're new to devices like these.
4. Where are the instructions for creating playlists?
The owner's manual for my toaster oven is the size of a small book in comparison, surely SanDisk could have come up with a more detailed instruction manual.
Digital camera Review: Disappointing MP3 Player
Summary: 2 Stars
Bought this item to use it for DRM-protected audio books. Felt a little flimsy and cheap when taken out of the box. After the installation, this supposedly plug and play device caused my computer to keep disconnecting and then reconnecting with the player. Two updates later I was able to transfer some files. Everything worked fine, however not with audio book playback. Unlike an Ipod, the player doesn't remember where I previously paused the current track after turning it back on. Also, when fast forwarding for longer than a minute of the track, the player switches to fast-fast forward, however re-starts the song when the fast-forward button is released!!! Really annoying. So between a cheap feel, poorly written and documented software and everyday problems with the interface I returned the item after 12 hours of trial.

I thought this device could use a 8 GB microSD card. However, Version 2.0 is the only model that has this capacity. Do not purchase this unit if your plans include expansion over 2GBs.Digital camera Review: Doesn't play from where you stopped

I wanted to listen to protected audio books on it and after listening for 30 minutes if you pause and the player goes to sleep, it starts the track from the very beginning and not from where you left off. This is very frustrating :( I checked it with mp3s and it's the same case, goes back to beginning of the track on restart (or wake from sleep). I wonder if all mp3 players other than iPods do that. Comments anyone?Digital camera Review: Don't Expect Much

It works. Software interface is a hassle. Not impressed. Battery charging is lame. Ear buds also useless.
