will headphone jack connection wear out?

Either orientation (top or bottom) has its advantages.  It’s in swapping regularly between the two devices, plus the side-mounted jack of the Clip, that the differences become more significant.

I’ve become familiar with the inverted Fuze, and being able to pop it from the pocket and read the display is fine.  Pausing the unit is where the oddities begin, as to briefly pause, I must remember whether the e200 or Fuze is in the pocket, so I press the correct side of the scroll wheel.  Essentially, i guess that’s one more icon in my brain’s task tray.

The design of the new headphone jack seems to be fine thus far, despite the increased insertion force required over the e200 series.
