"I will throw in my two cents' worth here. Which is to say, I am supremely sorry I wasted my money on the Sansa View 8g. I'll admit that it sounds good and the display is nice and bright and clear, but the battery life is nowhere near the claimed 30 hours of audio (looks more like 8 to me), and it has a nasty problem with freezing. By which, I mean that in moving forward and backward through the songs, the display frequently locks on the current song (the one you just left). Yes, you can hear the next or previous song, but the display is still on the last one, and the controls will not work until the display catches up, which can take what seems like an eternity. No volume control (which can be nasty if your songs are not all normalized), and no moving to yet another song, nothing. Sometimes I look at the display and note that it is locked on a song several plays back. SanDisk has replaced my unit three times now, and nothing has changed. Still unacceptable battery life, still freezes. " more
