Can the Fuze handle a 16GB micro card?

I saw a 16GB micro card on sale at Best Buy this week:

Can the Fuze take a card that big? I wouldn't buy one until the price comes down, but I'm just curious if it's better to skip buying a 4 or 8 GB card and just wait it out.

Yes, the Fuze can take a 16GB card, I have one.

Oddly enough, the Express can take a 16GB card as well. Just wish it sounded as good.

I hadn't seen any mention of 16 in various discussions about expansion capability, so I was curious if it was just due to the high price of the card or another issue.

Most likely the price of the card, since it works fine. Most retailers have had it for about $100US, you could pay more for it than for the Fuze. I picked one up off of Amazon a few months ago for about what Best Buy has it on sale for now.

Radio Shack has their cards on sale this week. I picked up a SanDisk 8GB microSDHC card and adapter for $25, which is more than I would've paid on Ebay or Amazon, but I know this one is real and I could bring it back if it was defective. I think their price on the 16GB was $59.

Pretty bad when you can get a 8 GB Fuze and a 16 GB card (24 GB total) for a little more than what a lot of places are still selling 8 GB Nanos for. I guess that's why we're in these forums instead!
