Jog Dial


I decided to grab a music player for jogging - I don't need massive capacity; as I only need my jogging music on there, so 2GB is more than enough. After some deliberation I went with a Sansa Clip. Ipod would never be an option for me, and the latest furore over the five knuckle shuffle headphone/controller chip vindicated that point of view to some extent (I hate locked-down proprietary hardware).

The Good:
  • Nice OLED Display
  • Superb sound quality (with decent 'phones)
  • Price (£23)
  • Battery Life
  • Radio
  • Voice Recorder
The Bad
  • No SD card slot
  • Size (it's 7 times the cubic capacity than a new shuffle :-))
I just wish SanDisk would make a hard drive version of the Fuze - Until then it looks like a Archos 5. . .
