DON'T BUY! History of unfixable lockups!
I've had my Sansa c140 for just over a year. Several times it has locked up, and I've managed to get it working again. Now it won't connect to my computer, all text is missing from the menus, and tech support isn't responding. (Being out of warranty, they probably won't.)
From what I've seen, this is a common problem, with no fix posted. Personally, I will avoid Sansa products in the future. I will certainly NOT buy another one of these!
Works with Vista 64
I've had this player for a couple of years and it has performed well. I like that it takes AAA batteries because it's easy to guarantee you're not going to run out of juice on a trip. The FM tuner is a bit weak, but functional, and the sound is pretty decent. The navigation is reasonable. I like that it has a switch to lock out the buttons so you can just stuff it in your pocket.
Recently, I thought I was in a fix because I put together a new computer for home and put Vista 64 on it. When I plugged the player in, I got the dreaded "no drivers found" issue that is common with this OS. It turns out that you can't have anything playing when you plug it in.

MY VERY FIRST MP3 PLAYER
My sister gave me this MP3 player when her boyfriend bought her another one. I love it. I also love the fact that it has an FM radio. It's so cute and tiny. Definitely would reccommend this to first time MP3 users ( like me who still hasn't gotten the hand on downloading songs from the computer).
It's a great little MP3 player!!!
Great simple MP3 player for my 10 year old daughter
After reading many reviews we bought this as my daughter's first MP3 player. It was also the first MP3 player in our house! She is thrilled with it and there have been no problems so far so I'm happy. We wanted to be sure that it didn't rely on charging it frequently, but rather used batteries because she would often be away from home or any computer while using this and that was one important reason we choose this player over others. The price was also great on this player. So far loading songs onto it and using it have been very easy.
sandisk sansa c140
it was a gift and I have not received any complaints. I programmed the songs into the MP3 player, which was very easy (no CD to install) and I was able to also import photos which was nice.
