Why is the Creative Zen Nano Plus so special? What makes it special?

All of Creative's products have been worth every cent (or pence!) The Zen Nano is the smallest of all the creations, and some people prefer it over the larger products. I think it is brilliant.

The day I got it, I was suprised with how small it was. It cost about £50, and I was fussed with how much music it held at first.. I was just amazed with how small and stylish the Zen Nano was.

I was also amazed with the extra features it had, including a radio and a recorder (different features to those of us who own iPods). Although, after filling up the MP3 player with a small selection of my music, I had to take some songs out to add new ones in, and it doesn't seem like much work, but it got annoying doing it all the time. That is quite a big disadvantage.. the size of it. It is only 256MB, and a lot of people nowadays have at least 500MB of music, and listen to it regularly. It just isn't very practical to me.

I highly recommend it to someone who is not going to be listening to music very much, and doesn't mind changing songs over when they get bored, however, I would urge the people who listen to music a lot, to look for a larger MP3 player, as it got me annoyed because I was too "big" for it.
