Sansa c200 - coming in October

SanDisk Corporation introduced the Sansa c200 series, a stylish flash memory-based MP3 player that is loaded with high-end features -- such as a bright LCD color screen and a microSD expansion slot -- and smashes the $100 price threshold for a 2-gigabyte (GB) player.

The c200 is sold in two capacities -- 1 gigabyte (GB) and 2GB. However, the memory can be expanded with the addition of an optional SanDisk microSD(TM) card, which currently is available in capacities of from 256 megabytes (MB) to 2GB. For example, with a 2GB microSD card, a user can transform a 2GB player into a 4GB player to hold nearly 2,000 songs (at 64kbps). The c200 supports WMA, MP3 and the protected WMA DRM format that gives consumers the ability to purchase or subscribe to music from most music service providers.

Suggested retail prices are $79.99 for the 1GB unit and $99.99 for the 2GB unit
