Sansa Clip – the Apple Shuffle killer?

August 25th, 2007

The Sansa clip is yet another piece of technology that’s going to make my life better, especially at the gym.

I hate to use my iPod video there: it’s big and heavy and I dislike having the headphones cable go from my pants/shorts pocket. The obvious solution is to get an iPod Shuffle and clip it on my shoulder or something, but the !@#$%^ doesn’t support FM radio (most gyms have TV broadcasting the audio over FM). Also, the Shuffle is blind (no display) and dumb (shuffle) – but it’s good looking.

In short, the Sansa Clip is a better alternative to the iPod Shuffle, but it’s not nearly as sexy.
