There Fuze is notably smaller than that - to the point of being kinda cute.  The screen is large enough to easily read (though it is a little harder in bright sunlight, especially while wearing my polarized prescription sunglasses).  The navigation, is fairly intuitive, though some of the specifics will take some getting used to.This morning I slapped a couple of albums on it, and tried it out on my walk to the subway, using the included earbuds.  Normally, I don't like earbuds - having something stuck in my ear like that is pretty distracting for me.  The irritation was still there, but bearable for the moment.  Sound quality was better than I expected out of cheap earbuds, honestly.  I will be interested to compare it to the Koss clip-on cans I ordered that are still on their way.I'll have to spend a moment this evening removing the demonstration music and video that shipped installed on the device, and getting some more music installed.  I am still up-in-the-air about installing the Rhapsody software that came with the player, and I'm not sure If I'll handle media management through Windows Media Player synch, or just manually. So, my first impression is good.  We'll see if that holds up over time.</blockquote>
