[edit] Article Deleted???

... Why? The iriver U10 page is far worse in quality standards... --Jw21 (PenaltyKillah) 03:54, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

It seems to be a mistaken deletion of the valid article in place of the article where a deletion was actually supposed: Sandisk Sansa e260. I posted a deletion review. It should be back soon. --Alethiareg 04:38, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] FM tuner

Why is it not available in Europe? 69.87.194.215 20:54, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

The cost of Devices with Fm radio is higher and Sandisk feels they need to sell the player for the lowest possible price. Fm is avaiable in europe, just not in the european player (if that makes any sense) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 60.242.25.74 (talk) 06:07, 12 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Tables needed

This article needs some good tables summarizing the models and features/history, like the iPod article. Also, all individual model numbers should be listed, so that searchers can find this page -- not just the series base model number. 69.87.194.215 20:57, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

I would be good if we got a table going up here. I am not vey competent with wikicode. Maybe we can make a exact replica of the iPods one with the C series, E series and M series. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 60.242.25.74 (talk) 06:24, 12 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] USB mass storage / Windows Explorer drag and drop

First, thanks for this article that summarizes well the changes between different Sansa series. I could not find the specs on the Sandisk site for some reason.

And now my question is: which Sansa players implement the USB mass storage device class specifications? i. e. which ones require no driver in Windows 2000/XP and allow drag and drop of files through Windows Explorer? 216.239.74.199 07:09, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Simple answer All. The new e200 series feature WTP and MSC —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 60.242.25.74 (talk) 06:05, 12 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] M200 series in 'Older' models list?

Is there a particular reason that the M200 series is in the Older models? It's #6 on Amazon's top MP3 players based on sales, so it seems odd to have it relegated. User:Craigand

The M200 series was released before the C100 series. The C100 series has been discontinued for c200 series. In this way the m200 series can be described as older even though it is selling well. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 60.242.25.74 (talk) 06:06, 12 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Sure about M4A support?

According to Sandisk tech support, there is no current support for M4A files. Perhaps in a future firmware update? Steve Graff 23:54, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

SanDisk aren't responsible for the the e200R. You will have to ask Real 60.242.25.74 06:33, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
I just tried an M4A/AAC file on my friend's Sansa, and it played fine; I will have to check the model number, because I don't remember it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.147.63.21 (talk) 23:49, 21 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Photo request

The four images that illustrate this article now are promo images. These fail WP:FUC #1. Can anybody take a picture of the e200 and license it under the GFDL or CC? I do have a Sansa, but it's the lower-end 1GB m240 one. Hbdragon88 23:16, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Yep, i have heap of them on http://thesansa.com I don;t have a c200 though60.242.25.74 23:38, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
That's your website? Would you mind licensing them for free use? if you do coul dyou send a permission email to permission AT wikimedia.org? Hbdragon88 23:52, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Yep, My photos. I can release them as free use. 60.242.25.74 06:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Awesome. Could you update your site to state that the images are licensed under free use? "Free use" includes commercial usage and derivatives. Hbdragon88 04:00, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Model sections

Could someone please either trim the model sections, do something with the infoboxen, or just split the models off entirely? It's getting a bit cluttered, and I don't want to start editing an article I've never even seen before... — SheeEttin {T/C} 20:52, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Some of these models out sell some other mp3 players that have their own pages. I don't think cutting them out would be appropriate.

[edit] Accidental or Intentaional Deletetion?

It seems there was some debate on deleting the dedicated an e260 model page with agreement to delete if there was a redirect to this page but now this page has been deleted. This was a great page and no one agreed to delete the general sansa page. 203.217.35.174 23:31, 8 February 2007 (UTC) Mianos

I posted a deletion review, since the deletion discussion cited in the deletion log was that for Sandisk Sansa e260, which is now a redirect. It's not hard to see how the mistake was made. The Admin probably clicked on the link to the article he intended to delete not knowing that it had been changed to a redirect. Thinking he had found the right article, he simply deleted it, unaware that the article he deleted was actually the main article that should have been kept. Alethiareg 04:41, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sansa Connect

I definatly don't want the view, because i hate music videos. But what about the Sansa Connect, is there anymore info on it? -Yep check it out: http://thesansa.com/index.php/sansa-connect-review 60.242.25.74 06:24, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
