Sandisk releases the 8GB Sansa E280 to further the battle against the Nano

I mentioned in an earlier post on that I purchased a 6GB Sandisk Sansa E260. Well, the E280 now is out with 8GB of memory and it's cleverly priced at the same price as a 4GB iPod Nano.  I wonder if consumers will go for the bait and start picking up Sandisk's players since they have twice the capacity of the Nano at the same price as well as recording and FM radio...

Whew!  This also means price drops for the 4GB and 6GB versions of the Sansa as well.  I guess it's another case of "should have waited to get that gadget".
