 Beautiful MP3/Video Player July 14, 2008
I've owned the Zen Vision: W for quite some time now, and it's a great alternative to the iPod. The widescreen display is beautiful! Perfect for watching movies on the go. The quality and different resolutions you can set make most movies look great.
The software that comes with the Zen is relatively easy to use. It's similar the Apple's drag-and-drop mentality, and you get the hang of it pretty quick.
I felt the buttons were a little small (and I have small hands), but they stood out from each other well enough to use it without a problem. Keeping the buttons small and off the to side allows for the big screen, and it's a sacrifice I'm glad I made.
The only reason I didn't give this a 5-star rating was the sheer size of the thing. It's big, heavy, and definitely noticeable in your pocket. The Zen isn't the most portable device, but that screen is just so pristine, I don't really mind the trade-off.
 Creative Zen Vision W 30 GB Widescreen Multimedia Player (Black) June 16, 2008
Very good, great sound and picture. Has hooked up to a car stereo input and worked great. Now 2 years old.
Great MP3 May 28, 2008
I've had my vision W for about a year and a half, and it's fantastic. it still looks and works as if it were new. this is probably the best (if a bit chunky) mp3 you can buy, if you want everything plus a 14 hour battery life.
My only complaints are that the earphones only lasted a year, and that it is a nuisance trying to get album art if you don't use windows media player, which adds it automatically. otherwise it held up fine. I have around two thousand songs on it, and thousands of pictures, and I've only used about 10GB. Originally I had a card for videos, but I don't think I'll need it, because there's so much space on it.
If you like watching movies, and fly on long international flights, get this. Don't even consider a smaller screen. I've been there.
It's easy to use, lasts a long time, and has a big screen. buy it.

I going to keep this simple. I purchased this for my husband last Christmas. He affectionately calls it The Beast. He loves it. The screen is HUGE, the menus are easy to navigate and it holds tons of stuff. The sound quality isn't the best but it's better than many other players on the market. It goes everywhere he does. Mans, new best friend, the Zen W!

I should have researched this player more thoroughly before ordering it, as it is MUCH bigger than I envisioned. There is no way it could be used for walking or running (which is what I purchased it for), and wouldn't fit into most of my pockets. I'm sure it is a wonderful player if your intentions for it are different than mine.
