Here's a tip. If you aren't a Yahoo! Music user then you might not want to bother. Admittedly, I've only been playing with it for about 10 minutes now, but other than Internet radio from Yahoo! Music, the Wifi on this device is seems even more limited than that on the Zune. What a disappointment. Maybe after some more fiddling I'll discover otherwise.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Watter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 5th 2007 8:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have also rushed out to get one.

I used Yahoo Music as my main service since it started up but recently left for the Zune Scene. I use Flickr too. Since I have and like these services, this device is killer for me. <br><br>A couple points...<br>1. To stream from Yahoo's Radio, you DO NOT have to be a paid subscriber. I was able to stream fine and my Unlimited account expired a few months back.<br>2. Flickr works great for showing off your own photos.<br>3. At this time, I am only seeing the Yahoo Music Jukebox being the only way to sync your non-drm music. I am try to load up a 1gb micro sd card right now.<br><br>I'll be doing a demo video soon.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris Leckness]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 5th 2007 9:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</guid><description><![CDATA[I was excited about the WiFi Internet radio function until I learned that you have to go through Yahoo.

Like those fellows at Apple? By the way, since there are 0.85" HDDs invented already, why not make players with the 2-2.5" screen and such, but with a 20GB+ memory to compete with the iPods and Zunes and the Zens and the Gigabeats?<br><br>Oh yes, I don't know why everyone's falling for cellphones with 1" screens and "Oh, you can watch movies  from it! And 1GB memory for music!" You can barely fit one, or two movies in a measly 1 gig. Shouldn't there be a, at least, 10GB cell?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PenaltyKillah]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 6th 2007 12:10AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</guid><description><![CDATA[Chris, you can also sync music by drag-and-drop to the Music folder over USB.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pickelz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 6th 2007 12:18AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/05/sandisk-sansa-connect-sneaks-into-availability/</guid><description><![CDATA[it has been reported that it supports WEP, but I'm wondering about WPA.
