I just bought an 8GB Fuze today.  The current 10-usb-music-player.fdi on
Intrepid is wrong.  It needs to include 0x74c1 as the USB pid.  You can
also see 0x74c1 in Rob's listing.  It also omits mp3 as a supported
format!  (The Clip also supports MP3).  Actually the listing of
supported formats across all Sansa devices in the .fdi file seems rather
messy.

Sandisk do push their firmware updates heavily and their earlier
releases were somewhat buggy so my preference would be to optimise for
current firmware (ie Ogg, Flac support) vs the older stuff.

Doing a firmware upgrade is easy.  Under Windows you run their updater
software.  Under Linux & Mac you place a single file in the root
directory of the device and unplug from your computer.  So if someone
with old firmware ended up with Ogg/Flac files on their device and they
didn't play, copying one more file and unplugging would be easy.
