SanDisk released a player during autumn 2007 called Sansa View which basically is a beefed up e200 with a better screen and larger NAND.
Contrary to other players from SanDisk released this autumn, this player remains having the mi4 file format for firmware upgrades and the main SoC is PP-like although with Nvidia GeForce magic applied.c At this point in time, it is still not quite determined exactly what model it is. The firmware mentions "PP6110".
They even seem to still have an AMS codec chip in there! The AS3517 is easily visible on pics posted here. (The e200 and c200 both use the AS3514.)
The mi4code tool can decrypt and encrypt the View's firmware just fine.
markys in the forum showed us a fdisk output at it looks like:

For your convenience, here's a small zip file collection with Sansa View firmware and bootloader images:
Similar to the e200 series, the View has its boot loader, main firmware image and more kept in the "hidden" second partition. At least large parts of it is laid out exactly as described in the Rockbox wiki page SansaE200FirmwarePartition
markys provided a second partition image dump, which I store local and offer for download here: part.gz 5.2MB gzip compressed.
