Lots of business takes place behind closed doors at CES in Las Vegas and in one of those meetings I was able to play with the three new Sansa players from SanDisk. The coolest of the three to me was the SanDisk Sansa Connect MP3 player. We have covered it a bit previously, but here is some additional hands on info.

The Connect is a WiFi enabled player that has some pretty cool features. The feature that I was most impressed with was the ability to share songs directly between to Sansa Connect devices or to share them over the internet. Say I wanted to let a pal in Cali listen to a really cool local band and we both had Sansa Connect players. I could send him the track directly to his player if we were both WiFi connected at the time. The Sansa Connect player wasn’t much bigger than the Sansa e280R I reviewed previously. On the rear of the Connect there is an external speaker for times when you don’t want to listen with ear buds or headphones. The device is set to ship in March some time and pricing is set at $249.99.
