yep it has a screen. battery life is half an hour less than the standard
stone at 9.5 hours and it has an fm radio with a choice of 32 pre set
stations - it isn't clear from the description whether this means 32
customisable presets or whether the unit comes pre configured with 32
channels which you can't change so that for one requires some closer
investigation before considering this unit to my mind.  it also has some
extra frills such as a visual stop watch and customisable controls,
pressumably so you can quickly access your fave features.  in terms of
ease of access it looks to me like a step backwards compared to the 1gb
model.

If that is so, then it surely will have a screen which must make it
larger than the stone.

        I understand from the publicists that the FM radio is fully
integrated into the Stone Plus.
