Hope you don't mind, but I'd like to re-post this as an article here on the site (you get all the credit of course). Any issue with that?

Saw Santa over the weekend... look what he got me...

Yes, it's the new Sansa View.
Very sleek piece:
- Much improved scroll wheel from the E200 series, more like the Sansa Connect feel
- the 2.4" screen on this thing is absolutely gorgeous and pleasant to watch video's
- Similar/Same GUI as Sansa family
- Mp3/FM/Audio books
- nice rubberized feel on the back of the unit
- works great and instantly recognized with Windows Media player for syncing music and video
* front plastic similar to the Connect, so fingerprints and smudging will be an issue
* also see a protective screen film being a big attach rate sell for this unit
* This unit although thin, is the largest sized Sansa unit to come out yet (longer)

I like how the engineers built in the Home/function LED's so that when you are watching video's (sideways) they switch locations

At 8 and 16gig, these things can pack alot of media. Should be a very interesting holiday season!!

I rcently ought my Sansa view 8Gb and cant be more happy. I just love this tiny gizmo with so much bang for the buck. Probabaly get a D-lo case from Best Buy later this week to protect my investment. Also getting an8 GB SDHC card so my palyer will have 16Gb. plays movies with no problems so far, and im also looking at soldering an RCA cable to play movies on my TV from my View, since the player has PAL and NTSC options, it shouldnt be any problem. wish me luck.
