Which model Fuze?
v2, not that I think it really matters much?
I think the screw that came loose was likely related to the trackwheel, as it's a bit looser and sometimes needs a firm press on the very bottom of the wheel to register that input, but after the first firm press it acts normally.
I don't have enough trust to do ANYTHING related to the ribbon cable, already broke a player that way. Mainly curious as to how best to "reglue" the bottom half since it's lifting a bit from when I had to open it.
I have a few other ebay spares, one needs an inner screen cleaning (looks like something leaked inside it and stained at one point), and the other just needs scratch polished out. I was never good enough to buff out plastic even with Novus, though.
The wheel design is what I love about this player, even better than the iPod touch interface. A full tactile feel. Really wish they still made them or someone would make a similar model based on that input design.
