Alright. I just gotten my sansa fuze today.

I've chosen functionality over style and i am pretty happy with my purchase.

I also got the crossroads mylarone bijou together with it.

Pretty happy

Good choice, Functionality > Looks in my opinion (though I'll be biased on color),
I barely look at my mp3 player anyways except for when I'm looking for a song

Am I the only one who thinks the Ipod nano 's looks has got worse and worse with each generation? When I saw the 'is this the latest ipod' pics for the 4G, I thought; no way, thats clearly a cheap chinese copy.

Nice looks on the new Nano.

Apple Store (U.S.) - iPod nano

Better not let my wife see these.

Why did you throw in the sony A828. It combines functionality with design in my opinion.

 

[shigzeo]

i think the nano has amazing functionality: codec support is other than ALAC, non proprietary, has full industry support, gapless playback, much longer battery life (don't believe only 24 hours - my 3g has never seen under 28 hours and often tops up at a straight playback of 33 or 34), has great video format support (again standards based vs proprietary).

it also has a massive amount of add-ons if you are into that. the ipod no matter that no one here seems to think sounds good for whatever reason, does indeed sound good. if packaged or marketed as an audiophile device, im sure we would all rave over them.

as for looks: i find the fuze similar enough to the nano to not be ugly at all just not sexy. the ui: well, it is not top notch but definately better than others i have used.

price seems okay too but with new lower price on the nano, i really don't see how just an expandable memory as well as fm tuner are really worth investing in.

i have the sony 828: no radio same as the nano but unlike the nano what it has is hiss, and loads of it. it sounds good and looks very nice but is it ever loud. eq is decent on it but not great but at least it works versus ipod.

i think fuze looks good, especially with a ksc75

nano is too much hyped, ipod is..

how does it par with e280? as far as SQ and UI are concerned

 

[Nilosaur]

I'm wondering this as well. What other players are in the flash 8gb-32gb range?

I feel the same way too. Apple's marketing really has brainwashed everyone. At the very least the Fuze's physical wheel is superior to the Nano's click wheel.

Yeah I find the 1st and 2nd gen the best-looking. The chubby one was sort of cute but didn't grow on me. The new one looks like nothing more than a toy, although it really looked great in the pictures.

nano is more interesting
