Customer Reviews:

love it!.......2005-04-13

I bought the Nomad Muvo NX 256 over one year ago, and I loved it so much that I am upgrading to a TX 512.

I love the fact that the USB connector is built right in. That was the biggest factor that influenced my decision to buy this unit. No cables to carry around (or lose), just plug it in and go. If I am at a friend's house, and they have a song I want, I can just plug into their computer and take it! It is SO EASY! You use it as you would any other removable drive.

Don't bother with the Creative software, it sucks. Just drag your music over and go. The "problem" of playing alphabetically can be overcome by putting numbers in front of music filenames, I already do this with all my CDs.

The headphones that it comes with are not great. I use Sony's MDR-ED21LP headphones, which cost about $20 (buy them online, I can almost never find them in stores), and the sound is great.

The unit is very durable, I dropped it many, many times and it survived with no problem. Battery life is pretty good, but if I am going on a trip or planning a long day at the beach I usually bring an extra AAA along, just in case.

One word of caution: I upgraded the firmware a few months ago, and it slowly began to crap out on me after that. I would have to push the power button twice to make it turn on, and it would not always be recognized by my computer. It was fine until I upgraded the firmware... So if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Overall, I love the Muvo NX 256, however I would probably recommend the TX series to a new buyer, since TX has USB 2.0 and NX has USB 1.1.

worked well while it worked.......2005-02-25

I thought this was the best thing ever. I loved the capabilities to carry data at the same time as music. I loved being able to run with it (with no skipping or problems at all) and it was easy to transfer.
I don't like how the songs play in alphabetical order. and MOST OF ALL- i hate the fact that they only have a 90 day warranty! Mine stopped being recognized by computers a month ago, and creative labs (terrible cust. service by the way) is telling me i have to pay 40 bucks to get it fixed. I really have a hard time trusting in these products when creative labs themselves can't trust the products they make enough to give them at least a 1 yr warranty. I suggest not taking the risk on this one... and just spend a bit more money and get something w/a better warranty and something that's better -- Ipod.

Good Product.......2005-01-16

I really like my MP3 player, it is small and comes with an arm band so I can work-out with it. My only complaint is that the battery compartment is a bit flimsy and the cover comes off all the time.

PERFECT MP3 PLAYER.......2004-12-27

This little thing is awesome. Basically, it is a Walkman, but about the size of cigarette lighter. It holds approximately 70 songs. I'm using it for running. First thing I did was ditch the ear-buds that came with it. Those things will never stay in while you're running. My old Walkman headset fit in the jack. Runs off 1 AAA battery. I went to this because it was less than $100 and I've been reading all kinds of horror stories about getting the I-Pod battery changed by mailing it in. Not worth the effort.

The Nomad 256 fits easily into the USB port of your computer, though some computers will not allow you to slid the oversized flash drive in because the plastic case blocks it from seating property. Shove it in the back and you should have no trouble.

Holds a lot of music and its easy to click through songs you don't want to listen to. If you make a mistake in typing in info it will carry over to the Nomad and you have to delete and rename the file. Editing won't do it, for some reason. You'll love this thing. Cheap and easy to use. I'm going to buy one for my wife.

overpriced for a lack of features........2004-12-02

while creative has a hit on their hands with their latest Muvo solid-state MP3 line, there is absolutely NO reason to choose the Muvo NX 256MB player over the Muvo TX FM 256MB player.

The NX is more expensive, utilizes USB 1.1 to transfer files and lacks a radio/radio recording.

The TX FM is CHEAPER for the same memory size/usb stick configuration, utilizes USB 2.0 for MUCH faster speeds AND HAS FM RADIO INCLUDED AS WELL. seriously, the NX right now is a ripoff until the price drops the TX to match.
