Sansa Disk stops production of Sansa View and the real reasons for the sudden decision seem to be unknown for the time being.
Pmptoday quoted San Disk representatives when they stated: "the market is changing fast and furious and we want to shift our efforts to develop a PMP that will meet the needs of the market versus pushing out the wrong product. So were taking another look".
SanDisk added the new item to its portfolio last season. Just to make an impression you should know that the smart Sansa View is a simply designed video player, which the owner can take everywhere and watch favorite movies and shows while commuting or attending classes.
The customers who purchased the 8.0 GB Sansa View appreciated the sleek design, being considered one of
the slimmest players on the market today at less than 78.5mm x 123mm x 16.9mm.
A generous 4" widescreen color display reveals DVD quality videos with wide support of video file types and resolutions. Additional features included: SD/SDHC expansion slot for additional memory capacity, supports SanDisk Trusted Flash TM cards, such as Disney Max Clips and SD cards from digital cameras/camcorders.
Moreover, it features Slideshow capability for photos with the option to add a nice backgroud music while you show your memories to friends. Following the latest trend in technology, the player has an integrated speaker for watching and listening to content with a friend. Simple interface with backlit controls allows easy navigation, while the 8GB of internal flash memory stores up to 33 video hours or 2,000 songs or thousands of photos, enough to keep you occupied while you travel.
It is true that the market is overcrowded with touchscreen players and convergence devices that could rival the most advanced cellphone in the market or yet to be announced, but what about the Sand Disk fans who expected the player? The player is perfect for the teenagers, as they can take it to a morning jog or it can be used while commuting or reading at the public library.
Due to the integrated lithium-polymer battery, the player is capable of providing 15 hours of continuous music sessions. You have to know that the approximate time for MPEG-4 Video is at 512 kbps.
The SanDisk Sansa View comes stocked with a lot of pre-loaded content such as full-length movies, short films, videos clips, photos and music from CineQuest and eMusic, so you just have to browse and relax.
Minimum system requirements include: Windows XP and Vista operating systems, Windows Media Player 10+, a CD ROM drive and an USB 2.0 port from hi-speed transfer.
When purchasing the Sansa package for $300, you also receive a pair of headphones, lanyard, an USB extension cable and a CD with user guide.
In conclusion, there are no reasons to stop the production of such players, or to postpone its release date for Q1 2008.
