Yes, the VFD displays are very nice, I've thought about them before.
I guess $150 for a much better display than the LCD one I was
looking at for $100 makes sense, but I'm still kinda worried about
the ease of sifting through thousands of MP3's (even if they're
arranged heirarchically fairly well) on a 4 line screen... =P
Granted, playlists will help a lot I think, once I actually make
some.
