SanDisk e270 reviewed

SanDisk e270 reviewed: "Filed under: Portable Audio, Portable Video
After SanDisk announced their superiority over every portable audio player manufacturer (except one), you might have thought they were getting a little too big for their britches. Well, CNET finally got their hands on SanDisk's e270 (the 4GB flash-based player from their e200 series) and ran it through its paces. Is the e270 going to give the iPod nano a run for its money? Well, maybe. With built-in voice recording, photo and video playback, a removeable battery, FM-tuner, and a MicroSD slot, SanDisk's feature set seems to one up the nano, but there are some caveats. CNET notes the scroll wheel isn't all that great, photos have to be converted using bundled software, you can only record WAV files, and some mechanical noise bleeds through the headphones during playback. Praising the e270's durability twice, CNET seems to be taking a not-so-subtle swipe at the competition. Either that, or the SanDisk is really just that durable.
