"The c200 has some of the characteristics of SanDisk's award-winning e200 series, including a small and sleek design and a microSD memory card slot that allows for expansion opportunities," said Keith Washo, SanDisk's retail product marketing manager for the c200, in a statement. "We believe that the c200, with its great price point, will give consumers an attractive set of features normally found in players costing much more." You aren't going to be watching video on the c200's 1.4-inch 128 by 98 pixel LCD screen, but the c200's offer PlaysForSure support."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/1157124119_500Sansa_c200_angle.jpg" /><br /><br />This is a great deal, IMHO. The concluding line of this article - "If you aren't looking to all the frills, bells, and whistles—or to strain the budget—the c200s look to have a compelling combination of features for non-iTunes users' - puts it perfectly.

This is exactly why Sandisk is the only Windows DRM player maker making a dent in the market. This is a great deal, and they make some really kickass players. WELL DONE SANDISK.

2 Gigs for $100? Hell, even being the Apple fanboy I am, I'd buy it.
