...too!
I had a Creative Zen Xtra 30GB for Christmas back in 2004. I loved it, I really did. Until it decided it wasn't going to work any more after 9 months. Hard drive problems. It's still sitting, as a paperweight in a drawer.
So, I thought, "Creative have had a few years to sort these problems out, I'll try with a new one".
I was going to go for the 30Gb model, until I saw that Amazon had the 60GB for £159 - £90 off. Great!
A great thing about ... ...resets, and advice from the Creative website - nothing has worked.
I sent an email about this, and I've got a reply, telling me to do what I've already done.
They say it's not covered under warranty, and they'll only offer me a discount on a new one of my choice.
Like hell I'm going to get a new one from them!
And since when does a company NOT supply a proper warranty (I can't find any documentation in the box at all)?
My advice? Don't bother ...

Advantages: Space, Colour, Ease of use, price, features, sound and image quality Disadvantages: None taht I can note
August 31st 2006, Creative announced the launch of the 60 Gig version of the Zen Vision:M. I was dubious about buying one because there seems to be so much out there and when you do buy something like this, it's almost out of date before you get home!
I bought mine in the Xmas sales at a cost of £150 and have used it for 2 months. To put you in the picture I have a round trip of about 30 miles each day for work which includes a short drive, a long ... ...I take my Zen with me and the last thing I do before I get out of the car at the train station is put on some tunes!
I'm a metal fan, thrash metal to be exact and I listen to a lot of very loud, fast beating, screaming, shredding, bassy music. Until I bought the Zen I used my Sony Ericsson W810i for the trip but kept having annoying interruptions when people would ring me on the way to work. Hence the ZEN!
Anyway, back to the Zen. My first thought ...

Advantages: Good range of features, good sound quality, AV out. Disadvantages: Lots of wires, expensive extras
I have found this mp4 player very useful. It is the only one I am aware of on the market that has an AV out function, which is important for me as I like my TV on a bigger that 2 inch screen! The sound quality is faultless and the screen definition and range of functions is excellent. The default headphones dont even need upgrading, such is the quality of the package. However, you will find yourself spending an extra £20-£50 on top of the price for ... ...not come included, and also you will probably need to by a leather case as the screen scratches unbelievably easily like many other portable players. Also, the video conversion software that comes with the player is very slow, and converts to a quality that makes it impossible to watch on a TV screen, so I recommend downloading another converter. This is easy to do as the number of formats it takes is diverse. I find the menu screens easy to navigate, ...

Quick review of Creative ZEN VISION:M 60 GB Black Review ofCreative ZEN VISION:M 60 GB Blackby

Excellent player until it goes wrong!!! Creative Service is abysmal. Everything has to be done via email with a minimum one-day turnround for each response. You get instructions to do what you will probably already have done using their web site and if you then need to send the player for repair you have to negotiate on-line forms which typically don't work and select from a range of alleged problems, none of which, for me at least, described what is wrong with my player.
NEVER again will I buy CREATIVE

Advantages: Sylish, small, scratch-proof screen, don't have to convert videos Disadvantages: None
There are only 3 words to desribe this product; small, elegant and manageable.
I have had this product for a year and i am extremely happy with it. It is squite small and fits into the palm of an average's person's hand which makes it very manageable as it can fit into an average person's pocket.
Unlike the Apple Ipod, the screen is extremely scratch-proof. After having the product for more than a year, I still haven't recieved the slightest scratch ...
