Some companies might try to dazzle your eye with a sleek, hip, tastefully designed MP3
player, appealing to your basest preferences for superficial visual
beauty. Not SanDisk! They’re so confident in the value of this
super-cheap 256MB MP3 player, they don’t care that it looks like something a diabetic would use to check his blood sugar.
Let’s
face it, you’re not buying this to gain entree into the Secret Society
of Super-Hipsters. You just want its 256 cool megs of music storage for
a flat 20 bucks postpaid. You want its USB 2.0 convenience and DRM compatibility. You want an MP3 player so cheap, you won’t get too upset if you leave it on the bus or drop it in the toilet.
No, the Sandisk 256 MB MP3 Player won’t win any beauty contests. (And seriously, if you’re conducting little MP3-player
beauty pageants in your home, you’re probably beyond reason at this
point.) We kinda wish its memory was expandable. Sure, who doesn’t? But
at this price, we’ll play the SanDisk we’re dealt.
