I had the nano 2B version, and the battery crapped out of it this year, and I was told that it was an 80 dollar replacement. You can buy the kit, and do it yourself but its not the easiest thing in the world and requires sodering.

to me when a battery replacement costs that much, it becomes a disposale technology.

I went with the SANSA because the battery replacement is a lot easier, the operation doesn't require you to mess around with software on your PC (Unless your doing video), and the ability to use it as a data key and the FM tuner, and the price made it a easy decision.
