Summary: small and simple
Comment: The Fuze has more features than I want, but it is very easy to use and it is very easy to ignore the useless features.

When you get the unit, plug it in to the USB cable to charge it. Once it is charged, go into the settings menu and change the mode to MSC. This makes the Fuze act like a regular flash drive, so it will work with any operating system that supports USB. Next, format the unit. Sandisk includes some sample music that was installed in MTP mode. The two modes are not compatible, so your player will have wasted space if you keep the sample music.

Next, go to Sandisk's website. They will have a *.bin file available so you can flash the Fuze's firmware to the latest version. Just copy the file over with any file manager. They do have an updater program, but that doesn't work on my OS.

You now have a player that can handle FLAC and OGG format audio, as well as all the usual ones. That means Librivox and Project Gutenberg audiobooks work, so hard to find classics are easy to get. And if you're an audiophile, you can use FLAC for higher quality sound. There is enough space to fit at least 4 hours of MP3s and a short audiobook.

EDIT: I've picked up a set of cheap IEMs (jvc air cushions, about 80-90% as good as the high end IEMs I've used, at 1/10 the price). The sound is now very clear, with no hiss. Sometimes a good audio chip will have software that adds hiss, but the Fuze is free of this problem. The whole setup will easily fit into a jeans pocket, even if you're a curvy female who likes a close fit.

The display is not visible on a sunny day in direct sun on the lowest brightness setting. Tilting it slightly solves that. The clock is visible even when the unit is locked.

The radio sounded quite clear in my few minutes of playing with it... it's definitely a useless feature for me.

The delete option is a little confusing. I haven't found a way to delete a song unless it is playing. I'm used to doing the odd cleanup on my player to get rid of songs I'm tired of, and I can't find a way to do that without a computer. Very minor annoyance.

Summary: Player
Comment: I have one and bought two for gifts. The only thing I wish they include would be a sleve to protect the screen. Mine is pretty toasty at this point.

I would liked to have had some kind of manual however...

Summary: Impressive
Comment: Positives:
1. Preception: Very sleek and perfect size. It's not heavy or too light to carry which is good. People think it's an ipod but it's not. The screen is big enough as ipod mini so you can view things easily.
2. Music: Easy download features. Plug into USB port, drag and drop files. Once again no iTune requirements. Almost all formats.
4. Radio: Not that bad actually, since I take the train, I can still receive clear channels.
5. Movie/Pic: Have not used these features.
6. Navigations: The scroll is fine. I like it just cause I have more control rather than touch.

Negatives:
1. The headphones are on the bottom, right next to the input for USB. Not very smart of them to do this.
2. The turn on/off is on the side and it isn't a buttom you hold, but a small handle. Feels fragile if I push too hard.

Overall, the product is awesome. I had a Muvo mp3 player, very small and awkward button controls with small screen. I never wanted a ipod due to iTune requirements. ScanDisk Fuze is up there with ipod in preception and usage. Not only that, it is far less expensive and does just as much.

Def would buy as a gift as it seems the price for this is going down. So you will not get a better deal.
