RoadHazard: I've come to this thread late, and by this time you've no doubt already bought your Sony. I have the iAudio7 (which I'm enjoying), but there's one aspect left out of your comparisons between the Sony and iAudio (which at this time apparently makes no difference to you): The iAudio plays ogg and flac codecs as well, both capable of providing better sound quality than mp3. For different purposes I variously use all three. There may come a time in the future when you might want to improve your sound quality by switching the codecs you rip to.

Also, I really want to get it (the one I ultimately decide on) in the next few days, so that pretty much rules the Fuze out. One reason is that I'm going on a trip down to Austria (from Sweden, so that's quite a bit to travel) by car in about a week, and I really want a PMP filled with my favorite music by then. Right now, I just have my W810i Walkman phone, and my Memory Stick is only 512MB. Quite limiting. |
