Apparently, Costco has a pretty sweet deal on Sansa e280... I really like this line even though I had a few problems with e200. Rhapsody, shipped with Sansa devices, is not the most reliable piece of software out there. I eventually switched to MusicMatch, recently rebranded by Yahoo. Even this one refused to deal with legitimately purchased songs. I still prefer having CDs and ripping them. Another annoyance is in the way Sansa works with SD cards. I don't know yet if this got fixed in e280, but the one I have takes forever to start each time under the pretext of refreshing the database - it has to read all the data on the SD card before proceeding. It is somewhat understandable, but annoying nonetheless. With 8 gb or memory using an SD card will not be such a necessity, I hope... Regardless, these Sansa devices leave the competition (read: Nano) in the dust.
