SanDisk Modifies the Sansa Connect and Shaker

SanDisk are introducing adjustments to two of their Sansa players. Firstly, without dropping any qualities from the Sansa Connect a sizeable $100 has been cut from its price. The 4GB player will now retail for $150, on top of which the unlimited WiFi downloads from Yahoo! Music Unlimited come at a monthly charge of $15.

The second change is to the Sansa Shaker. Previously available in a single storage capacity of 512MB, a 1GB model is also presented by Sandisk. The 512MB and 1GB models are now $35 and $50 respectively.

Modify? Since when has lowering the price ever been considered a modification? Poor usage of words on Engadget’s part IMO…Other than that, the biggest disappointment to me on the Connect, was it’s being hand-cuffed to Yahoo. this ruined the net radio aspect in my mind, otherwise I would have been really interested in this player.The Shaker is a neat concept for kids.. it’s a toy and 512 GB seems about right.. keep it low priced.. bumping to 1Gb is non-news frankly.

“Modify” seems to be Travis’s choice of word Utew

I swear I read *Modify* in the Engadget article before reading it here.. I may be dreaming but I believe they changed the topic header…
