Not all of the older Sansa's are compatible, just he e2xx and c2xx series,
of which neither plays video, and Rockbox video support isn't the greatest.

Now if you did want one of these Sansa's, Tiger Direct in Naperville has a
bunch of the e260's which are compatible and only like $30 now.

Look for the Archos as well, and if you go to the Rockbox website, there is
a good breakdown of what's what and which one would be good for you.
