built in wifi? Ability to download directly from Yahoo's music subscription service? Sounded very cool...

but then i came across this; http://news.com.com/SanDisk+music+playe...2100-1041_3-6177920.html?tag=nefd.lede

Unfortunately, no matter what SanDisk says, you do not have access to all of Yahoo's 2 million songs--because the Sansa doesn't offer any way to find them. There's no Search command, no master list of bands or albums--no direct access at all.

In fact, you can download only a tiny fraction of Yahoo's catalogs: just what Yahoo decides to offer you on three sampler platters.

...

But that's it. If you're in the mood for anything or anyone specific--Kelly Clarkson, say, or Green Day, or Tchaikovsky--too bad. If Yahoo hasn't put it on the menu today, you can't have it.

Damn, this would have rocked if it has full access to Yahoo music, enough so to make me switch away from my nano....

Has anyone heard of any plans to update this? Or release one with real yahoo wifi access?

I can't wait for WiFi to become more mainstream in digicams, printers and MP3 players.

Why would you need WiFi in a digital camera? I can see putting WiFi printers and to some degree MP3 players...
