Good item but failed after 6 months professional use. Spoke to colleague in US who had the same problem but philosophically said that 'these things don't last forever'. I would expect more than 6 months' use from such an expensive product

This removable disk is reallllllly good. One of the people who left areview said that the software preinstalled cannot be uninstalled.THIS can be done, just have to look through the settings. The tour of the disk tell you this. Provides fast transfer speeds and good storage. The only thing i would say is that even though 2GB is given, you actually get 1.80Gb or something like that becuase the preinstalled software takes space. Skull is cool and funky, great for teenagers.Sandisk-Gr8 Reliablity
Overall Great product and would highly recommend to all

I have the 8MB Sansa View that I bought to replace my ageing 4GB iPOD.
For music its great. It has one major drawback and that is the software that you need from Sandisk to convert pictures and videos to the specific format for the player.

Anyways, to be able to watch TV again I have to uninstall the Sansa software. If I want to download photos or videos then I have to reinstall the Sansa software.
This is a known problem according to Sandisk but they have done nothing to find a solution. In fact, everytime i raise a support case for it, they ... Read More:

Good - it's about £100 cheaper than anything else I could find that allowed me to easily convert old videos to mp4, record TV in a PSP friendly format, and generally replace my old video recorder with a digital equivalent. It's also very small, easy to set up and allows instant recording as well as scheduled recording. Finally, it accepts many different memory cards and even acts as a memory card reader.
Bad - the remote takes a lot of getting used to. The buttons are clunky and it requires very careful aiming at the main box to work. The sound is also often very poor on the recordings. It's difficult to describe but there is often a faint whining noise in the background.
