Enjoy skipless music playback, photo slideshows, and videos with the sleek, easily-pocketable SanDisk Sansa e260 flash memory digital audio player with 2 GB of storage.

It features MP3 and WMA playback and is also compatible with secure PlaysForSure WMA files downloaded from online music stores and subscription services (like MTV's Urge, Napster, and Rhapsody). It also includes a digital FM tuner (with record function), voice recorder (via built-in microphone), and a brightly colorful 1.8-inch color TFT LCD screen.

The e260's distinctive, high-strength and lightweight back cover is made with an advanced Titanium alloy from Liquidmetal Technologies that is stronger than steel and highly resistant to scratches and wear. On the front, you'll find easy-to-use, backlit controls that make it a snap to navigate through the device's intuitive menus. The player also sports a microSD expansion slot for additional memory capacity and support for SanDisk TrustedFlash and gruvi content cards, which can be shared with mobile phones. A rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to a 20-hour battery life. It's even user-replaceable! On top of that, you get peace of mind with a one-year warranty.

You can use the included SanDisk Media Converter software to convert most popular video formats (MPEG-4, WMV, DivX) into the 15 fps (frames per second) MJPEG format that plays on the Sansa device. JPEG and BMP still images also get converted and downsized, and can be displayed in a slideshow. Voice recording and programming recorded from the radio are saved in WAV format.

Sansa e200 series players use PlaysForSure technology. Look for the PlaysForSure logo if you're shopping for a portable music or video device and you want to make sure the digital music and video you purchase will play back on it every time. Match the PlaysForSure logo on a large selection of leading devices and online music stores. If you see the logo, you'll know your digital music will play for sure. Choose from a large number of digital music and video stores, including MTV's Urge, Rhapsody, Yahoo!, MSN Music, MusicMatch, MusicNow, Napster, Wal-Mart Music Downloads, and many more.

	PlayForSure Music Subscription Support No point paying for music downloads when you cannot play it on the road, PlayForSure ensures you can listen to your paid music downloads
	Strong Alloy Metal-back Casing The back of the player is made from Liquidmetal and the front is a hard glossy plastic. The plastic is not the same plastic found on the Zen Vision:M or the iPod, which is very susceptible to scratching from normal use. The plastic found on the e200 is much more resistant to scratching.
	Fast Scrolling Animated Menus The graphical user interface is very responsive. It moves as fast as you can press the buttons. The menu transitions are animated and slide in and out smoothly. The only time the GUI pauses is when it switches to radio mode or saves a recording, but in general the GUI provides pleasant experience.
	Unique Ultra Bright Scroll Wheel Super Chic and functional scroll wheel stands out from the rest. Fly through your songs and images with speed and ease.
	Support for a Huge Range of Formats Audio file format: MP3, WMA, WMA-DRM10 (PlaysForSure), WAV Still image file format: JPEG, TIFF, PNG, BMP, GIF Video format: AVI, MPEG-1/MPEG-2 in MPEG, MPG, MPE/VOB (unprotected), MPEG-4 in AVI format, DAT, ASF, QuickTime MOV (QuickTime 6.5 or higher required), WMV (Windows Media Player 9 or 10.0 required)
	Easily Expand Your Storage Capacity On the left side of the player there is a slot for additional memory. Currently there are 1GB MicroSD cards available that can bring the total capacity of the e260 to 5GB of storage. When music is added to the MicroSD card and then inserted, the player automatically indexes the songs, combining them viewed as one media library. When the device is used in MSC mode the MicroSD card will show up as a separate drive; there is no need for a separate card reader. Additionally you can play protected MicroSD cards called Gruvi cards with preloaded content.
	Feature Packed Not only does the e260 play music & videos but it also has an inbuilt FM tuner, digital voice recorder, photo viewer
	User Replaceable Batteries User replaceable and rechargeable Lithium Ion battery for up to 20 hours of battery life (Battery Life Based on Continuous, Standard Playback, 128 Kb MP3 file)
	Fast and East Music Transfer Via USB 2.0 SanDisk gave us the best of both worlds by including MTP and UMS transfer protocols, which are switchable in the user settings. MTP gives you the option to automatically sync your media with Windows Media Player 10 and other DRM services. UMS (SanDisk calls it MSC, or Mass Storage Controller) allows you to drag and drop your music onto the player
