The Fuze+

I’d say try it before you judge whether the navigation is better or worse than scrolling on a wheel. The navigation is very similar to an iPod Touch, which is pretty easy.

It does retain one of the worst bits of the Fuze, unfortunately - it still requires mad scrolling to get through a very long list. Even with 16GB, I rely on genres to avoid the artist list. It’d be even worse with 16GB plus a 16GB flash card. On my Touch, I can go directly to a letter and skip most of the scrolling. That feature first showed up with the Creative Zen M (as far as I know), and its really nice.

I would hope it doesn’t retain the Fuze’s lenghty refresh. With 32GB of MP3 music, that’d probably take about fifteen minutes.

32GB in such a small device for ~$150 (16GB + 16gb microSDHC) would be fantastic, though!
