They actually make humidity sensing switches, then you can use the switch for whatever type of fan you like. I installed one this summer and it works great, not sure how long it will last though. It was like $30.

Personally I've never understood the need for a quiet fan? Many people actually prefer a loud fan so they can pee and crap without others hearing them. Ever been to party with a bathroom by the family room and a chick goes into the bathroom and it sounds like there's a clydesdale in there? I'm a huge fan of loud fans in the guest bathrooms.

If you are talking master bath or whatever that's your preference.

the breez seems to be a dual-speed unit which is nice and i'm not sure a humidity sensing switch could change the fan speed

i dont have that many people over to my house and i'm old and noises bother me. i like silence!

i just want a fan that can clear the fogged mirrors quicker and will turn on automatically when i'm in the shower and forget to turn it on behforehand.

i have a $30 loud arse fan in the poo closet for this reason. the fan that does the heavy lifting (removing moisture) is a panasonic. it will clear steam from a 10min shower in about 1-2min. the delta is a little louder, but nowhere near the old school nutones.
