Amazon.com Product Description

The Sansa Express MP3 Player is the world's first cable-less, flash-based MP3 player with a microSD expansion slot. It includes an FM tuner, a built-in microphone, voice and radio recording, a bright four-line OLED screen, and intuitive controls for quick navigation.

Everything you need to enjoy digital music.
No cables necessary.
Compact design to go anywhere you go.

Fits Any Lifestyle
The Sansa Express connects directly to your computer's USB port. That means no extra cables to add to your already-cluttered desktop (if you do require a cable, an extension USB cable is included). Weighing less than an ounce and about the size of a pack of chewing gum, the Express can easily go anywhere you go.

Full-Featured MP3 Player
The Sansa Express supports MP3, WMA, protected WMA, WAV, and Audible file formats. It includes 1 GB of flash memory, along with a microSD slot to expand your capacity and provide music portability. It also supports most subscription music stores.

Enjoy FM Radio--Now or Later
The Sansa Express features a digital FM radio tuner and the ability to record radio broadcasts. Keep that interview or song for later reference. Program up to 20 of your favorite stations as presets.

Voice Recording
Have a thought you need to get down before it evades you? Use the built-in microphone to record voice memos. Capture interviews, classes, short notes to yourself, or anything else you might feel inspired to record.

Sweet Simplicity
Once connected to your computer, the Express is detected by your operating system and appears as additional drive. Simply drag and drop your music files to the Express and you're ready to go. The lithium polymer battery is also recharged while the device is connected, giving you up to 15 hours of use at full capacity. The device is compatible with Windows XP and Vista, and requires Windows Media Player 10 or later.

best sounding mp3 - Reviewed on 2008-08-30

i've tried sony, philips, zune and this little player
sounds the best. for me the worst was sony then philips and then zune. with equalizer at normal setting, express accurately
reproduces audio files. it sounds natural not like sony (2g nwz series)which sounds artificial. haven't tried ipod but express would definitely satisfy even the most discriminating audiophile.

I bought this knowing nothing about them and expecting it to be complicated to use. WRONG! I just put it into my USB drive, let the computer find it as "new hardware", and began moving my MP3 files to it. Done! I did read the little book to make sure I understood how to navigate between the MP3s - but that took all of 5 minutes.

I am so impressed by this that my business partner and I are going to put all our teleseminar recordings onto these and sell them to our clients as well as attendees at an upcoming state-wide event!

I highly recommmend this product!

The product is of great quality and reasonably priced. However, I later saw other Sandisk items on sale, so I would probably have gotten those if I had known.

If you expect big performance out of a little and inexpensive MP3 player, then you'll have to keep looking (good luck). However, this little Sansa Express has been just right for me to use to listen to audio books, interviews, etc. I love how small and portable it is. I was able to easily load the audio onto it, and it has worked as described.

I like this mp3 player because its small, easy to use and has FM radio receiver which you can also record music from and a microphone for voice recording as well. The audio quality is great! All of these features packed into a small tiny device. Not to mention, windows media player 10 can recognize and synchronise to this device making it a lot easier to transfer mp3s to it. Plus, one of the best features that i liked about it is that it has a micro sd card slot which means, more and more storage capacity of course. Whether you want to expand your music capacity or use the spare storage for data, either way, its an awesome feature :). I give this little device a BIG 5 *****'S!
