Creative Zen 04/04/2006
This review is from: Creative White 40GB MP3 Player 70PF131000010
Pros:
My 39 gigs of music fit on one device. It has great sound reproduction. I've dropped it a couple times so far, and it's still working great. I love the fact that it has a rechargable battery pack, so that I'm not eating up AA batteries. Though, I hope it doesn't go bad....
Cons:
The scroll bar is annoying and inexact. I didn't know before purchasing the Zen, that you aren't supposed to run with a hard drive based MP3 player. The software interface is terrible, but once the music is on the device, who cares. The drivers are a pain in the buttocks if you don't read the manual to find out that you have to install the drivers BEFORE hooking it up to the computer. It's supposed to charge over the USB port, but it just turned on and ran the battery down on mine.
Overall Review:
I hear that there's a firmware update that's supposed to make it easier to use, but I haven't had a chance to install it yet.
