Use it at home and work without wondering where the software goes on the computer (unlike iPods).Īnd then I found out that there’s a place for more memory! I love that. I can connect my Fuze to any computer and be up and running for downaloads. When I bought my Fuze I was just interested in a 4gb MP3 player at a good price for music, audiobooks and podcasts. So if you just want a good personal player keep your eyes open for sales otherwise, look for something better supported or at least with a line-out jack.

I would not buy another at full price, and none of my friends will either. Why stick us with a proprietary plug that you don’t actively support in house or on the secondary market?īased on this lack of after market support, I think we can look forward to some really discounted FUZEs in the near future as retailers start dumping their stock. Why design a quality player then destroy your market by isolating your product? Almost every boom box, home theater system, clock radio, or other electronic device docks the ipods and not a single one accepts the FUZE. It really looks like Sansa wants the FUZE to fail maybe their engineers and marketers all own Apple stock or just hate their company. How much more could a simple digital alarm clock have added to the cost of a hundred plus dollar speaker dock? The Apple version has an alarm clock making the unit much more functional oh, and the list price is exactly the same as the clockless Sansa compatible version.
Even the large dock with the speakers is sub par since it doesn’t have a clock.
It is almost completely unsupported by any accessories, does not provide a line-out function, and the dock that Sansa advertises is a discontinued item being clearanced by the manufacture. I have to wonder why Sansa dropped the ball with the FUZE.
