Buy SanDisk Sansa Fuze 2 GB Video MP3 Player (Black) at Amazon
I did a lot of research before purchasing the Fuze. My research led me to narrow my choice to two options. One being the Fuze, the other being the IPod Nano. In the end I bought both units. The Fuze I paid cash for from Amazon, the Ipod I redeemed credit card points to obtain.
After having both for about a month now I don’t understand why anyone would buy an Ipod. Other than the beautifully designed packaging and product it is the most difficult proprietary product out there. You have to use Itunes to register the unit and load music. In my case downloading Itunes messes with my Windows Media Player which I use as a player linked to a hard drive which is my in home music server. In order to fix the software conflicts between Itunes and Windows Media I had to resort to uninstalling Itunes which by it self did not solve the problem. Only after defragementing my hard drive did the problem go away.
The Sansa Fuze was so simple to load with music I was amazed. Simplily plug it in and drag and drop. It even gives you the option of specifying what type of music file you prefer (ie compressed or not). With storage expansion via card and an FM player it is fantastic.
So while I appreciate the visual design of the Ipod it is extremely over rated to me. Don’t buy an Ipod unless you are only interested in looks over performance.

Horrible Menu
This is the worst menu system ever. You will tear your hair out as it throws you into places you did not want. Buy something else – like the ZEN.
The SanDisk Fuze is a great MP3 player. The 2GB Fuze costs half the price of an iPod and has many more features and is easier to use. The Fuze has a micro-SD slot so it’s expandable for more music, videos, pictures, etc. The Fuze has a digital FM radio so you can catch up on news, sports scores, and listen to radio music as well. The Fuze also has a voice recorder with built-in microphone so you just talk into the machine and verbally record memos. But the best feature…and this is what sold me on the Fuze… is that works with the ubiquitous Windows Media software found on most PCs. You simply click and drag your music from your computer’s library into the Fuze file, which I find much easier than Apple’s complex and propriety music file system. The iPod is an icon, and there are a zillion accessories for it, but it doesn’t hold a candle to the SanDisk Fuze. Don’t be a robot and follow the crowd, break yourself free and go for the Fuze. SanDisk simply makes a better MP3 player with more features for a lot less money. Whether its the very tiny Sansa Clip with 3-line display, or the Sansa Fuze with a full screen, SanDisk MP3 players are a much better value. I am very happy with my Fuze and highly recommend it.

Player crashes and reboots on occasion
I’ve had this player for 6 months. It worked great until recently. Sometimes it will crash in the middle of playing a song. I’m not really sure what is causing it.
The san disk fuze 2gb player is the best player i have owned. I had many mp3 players including an ipod nano. Some were very simple and others had all the bells and whistles, but this one is my best buy yet. Very good sound quality and video quality. I been look for a multimedia player but didn’t want to shell out money for an expensive player like the new nano. And I didn’t want one that was going to break or not be to do what i wanted even if the price was reasonable. This one was exactly what i was looking for and the price was very reasonable. I especially liked that memory can be expanded up to 10 gb with 8 gb micro sd card. I enjoy my player and hope to get many years of use from it. I highly recommend it whether the 2, 4 or 8 gb fuze.

One of the best purchases (and investments) I ever made
When I first started looking into getting an MP3 player, the one thing that stuck out in front was the iPod. What stuck out even more was the price of it.

Excellent MP3 for Exercise
I did quite a bit of research before buying two of these. One for me, one for my husband. Both are used for working out. Excellent MP3 player for running.

Sansa Fuze 2GB
I am very impressed with this compact device. I like the size, especially the slightly thicker construction than other more costly units.
