but the FUZE has kind of unlocked the collection and made it portable. i just copy a couple of DVD's worth to a card, listen to it for a week and then erase and copy more to a card.


Sansa would be wise to market the fuze to flac/lossless/live music lovers like myself. i suggest it to all the traders/collectiors i converse with. everyone loves it but still wants GAPLESS....
talk is that Gapless playback will be available in a subsequent firmware release for the Fuze..not the next one but a release down the road. If I'm not mistaken I think the Clip has Gapless playback?.

Nope....unless you want to put rockbox on it, and I don't think it is 100% ready.

I just bought a Sandisk 8 GB microSD card for my Fuze, got it on sale at Staples. When I got home and took it out of the package, and looked closer at the back information, it says it is Class 2. Is that too slow? Should I return it? That was the only 8 GB microSD card they had (from Sandisk). I can return it if need be, but it's an hour drive to the store...but I can order one from Newegg or Amazon.

Mine is also a class 2, and it's always worked great for me

In Canada, the shipping for a memory card can be more than the price of the card. Don't know about US shipping.

The Class rating on flash cards is a minimum number, not a cap. So a Class 2 card is guaranteed to never drop below a 2MB/second write speed. Manufacturers tend to err on the side of caution, so the actual speed is often higher. And of course, reading from a card, which is what the Fuze will do with it, is always way faster than writing to it.

DealExtreme is like a web dollar store for geeks. Online gadget heaven!

I get Nintendo DS accessories from them, and their screwdriver set was surprisingly good.

yeah..about a month ago I got a couple of microSD card readers. $2.47 each PLUS the free shipping! And it takes about 2 weeks (10 business days) to ship to Canada. I Love DX!

I got these screwdrivers. At that price, you just can't beat it, and now I can finally replace the cooling paste in my laptop!
