    If you can stomach the $12 monthly charge for Yahoo! Music Unlimited To Go, the Sansa Connect is a fantastic device. Once you subscribe to the service, you can wirelessly download content onto the flash player, which also... Read more

    • Uses Wi-Fi to download music. Wirelessly stream photos via Flickr. Plays MP3s. Plays tracks from Rhapsody and other Windows-based services. Easily connects to secure and unsecured Wi-Fi networks. Sleek design. Bright scree...
    • No way to search for artists wirelessly. Requires Yahoo! Music Unlimited To Go subscription ($12 monthly) for Wi-Fi downloading. Can't recommend some non-Yahoo! tracks to "friends."

    Microsoft’s idea of letting people share their favorite songs using a wireless connection was as botched in execution as it was brilliant in conception. Read more

    • Wireless networking, Internet radio, great user interface.

    For an MP3/MP4 player this product is great! It took 3 hours to completely charge, however, I was able to sync songs while it charged. It has all the features of its "protege". It can sort by artist or song. Read more

    • You can sort by artist/song. Create playlists, listen to your music without using the headphones. The screen colors are vibrant. I was able to sync my music using Microsoft Media Player (Version 10) without any problems at...
    • It is only an MP3/MP4 player. Product description is misleading as it does not have Yahoo Music, Yahoo Messenger or WIFI capabilities. I can't speak on the battery life because I only charged it once.
