New SanDisk Sansa Connect player with ZING ships. Connected mobile entertainment gets moving.
We are proud to announce the arrival of the SanDisk® Sansa® Connect™ mobile music player with ZING in stores.
The new WiFi®-enabled MP3 player, which captured the 2007 CES Best of Show , utilizes ZING technology and services to deliver a whole new connected mobile entertainment experience. Now you can connect, stream, download, discover, manage and share your song recommendations and photos with fellow subscribers – directly from Sansa Connect via any open wireless "hot spot" Internet connection.
Look for the “ZING” menu feature which gives subscribers quick access to the connected features they’ll use most – get a song, get an album, get a mix like this and send song recommendations to friends.
“Taking the PC out of the equation is a giant step in creating a truly mobile entertainment experience and opens rich new possibilities for engaging and expanding the market for mobile entertainment,” commented Tim Bucher, CEO of ZING. “We are excited to partner with SanDisk, the second largest producer of MP3 players in the U.S., to make Sansa Connect the gold standard for a truly mobile entertainment experience.”
