I have the old style Sansa Clip and it is 1.3 oz with the earbuds.  It
takes the Mini USB.  My wife just got the new version with the color screen
(I think they call it the Zip Clip).  I haven't weighed it yet, but it
feels about the same as mine.  In their infinite wisdom, though, they
changed the charger to a Micro USB so now I have to have two adapters.
