 Good player, with only one [so far] show-stopper November 24, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The only thing that I don't like about it is that it forgets where the audio track was paused if I watch a video (or where the video was paused if I pause and play a song), or after an off-on-off cycle without playing anything prior to turning it off the second time.
- The screen is bright and contrast is good
- It works in Linux (use Gnomad, or the MTP plugin for Rhythmbox)
- Very light
- It is easy to "scroll" inside a track, just keep the rewind button pressed and it will increase the step if you hold it longer
Another important detail is the label you see when you open the package:
{
WARNING: Handling this product may expose you to chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other rproductive harm.
}
People from Creative commented as follows:
{
Our apologies, that passage was inadvertently placed into the Zen
documentation. There are no cables in the Zen package that contain any
traces of lead that would fall under California's Safe Drinking Water
and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986.

I'm practical. Don't necessarily have to have the best. Just the functions I need and not be terribly complicated. This is my first MP3 player and for what I wanted it for and the price at the time, it was and is perfect. Had it for 3 months and it delivers as expected. No problems.
 it quit November 23, 2008
In used to love using this player, but it stopped working after 6 months and the firmware download didn't help. Too expensive for something that only lasts a few months.
 Keep a paper clip handy and be ready to reset this thing often. November 20, 2008

This Zen locks up all the time. It freezes up a few times a day when listening to an audio book. I keep a paper clip handy to push the little reset button which is the only way to knock it loose. Nothing quality about the build or feel. Feels like a 12.99 kid's toy. I wanted to like it, but just can't seem to find a very good reason.
 Excellent MP 3 Player November 19, 2008
Excellent MP3 Player. I am able to carry almost all my music plus photos and video whereever I go. Even purchased one for my wife. We both love them.
