SanDisk Puts Video in Your Pocket

The new Sansa View is a portable media player with a 4-inch-wide screen and 8GB of flash memory, which the company says could hold up to 33 hours of video. The $299 device is 0.7-inch thick, so should fit easily into a pocket.

The device has an SD expansion slot for expanding its memory, and there's audio-visual outputs for playing content on a TV (a docking station will support 1080i). There's a built-in speaker in case you'd rather not use headphones.

The Sansa View will work with music download and subscriptions services, including Rhapsody, MTY Urge and Yahoo Music. The rechargeable lithium polymer battery is removable. The player is expected to be available in the first quarter of 2007.
