SanDisk Sansa CLIP MP3 Player + FM Radio - 8 GB MP3 Player

$87.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
have not tried out the recorder capability yet, but it's a great product at a great price!
from www.amazon.com
i've also enjoyed having the fm radio (great to use while i'm vacuuming) and i tried the voice recorder as well, though i haven't really needed it yet.
from www.amazon.com
the old sansa is still working & i have used it for recording as well as playing.
from www.amazon.com
because this guy is the best compact mp3 player that includes a voice recorder out there, and i have found that no matter what capacity player i buy i will always end up needing more space.
from www.amazon.com
back to the mp3 playeri know for a fact that this one holds great sound playback and the radio, voice recording and equalizer are phenomenal.

the player would have been even better if it had a voice recording feature.

from www.amazon.com
it has great features including the recording option and it needs no drivers which is great for someone not so "computer related".
from www.amazon.com
