Creative Zen Nano Plus.......2007-06-27

I love this player! I have had no issues with it whatsoever. It is very easy to use and to program. I will be buying more items from Creative Zen in the very near future!

Great for Audio Book downloads.......2007-04-21

I wanted to end the back breaking habit of carrying several audio books from the local library to work. I went to my libray website and found out that this little MP3 Player gives a lot for the buck. It has an FM radio with presets, it has a microphone, and for those who enjoy audio books it is the only player that starts right from where you left, regardless if it is in the middle of a sentence when you turn the Nano off. It holds quite a few books for only having 1GB. I have just purchased the 30 GB Creative Zen Vision and will continue to use the Nano for my audio books. I just found out the 30 GB doesn't have the start-stop feature mentioned above. I highly recommend this item for book lovers and patrons of the library. Downloads and check out is much nicer when you don't have to pay the fines. The quality is perfect. Overall this item is a must buy!

Does the job it's made for.......2007-03-05

FIRST OF ALL THIS DOES NOT COME WITH A NECKSTRAP!!! There is a misprint above, it comes with an armband - not a neckstrap. I was aware of this so it's fine with me but thought I would warn others.

In regards to the product itself I read all the professional reviews and this was basically tied with the ipod shuffle for best sound quality in the flash player category. If you are an audiophile looking for perfect sound you should get something more robust, because the sound in these small players can be slightly muddy. How to correct this? As with all portable players you need to toss the headphones that come with it. The Creative headphones are average and aren't really made to stay in the ear during workouts or running. If you are considering purchasing an ipod shuffle they will tell you the same thing - default headphones are always cheap. There's a huge difference in sound quality if you upgrade them to something better so it's highly recommended you do this.

I bought the Sennheiser PMX 70 headphones for this purpose. They sound great and stay in place while running. For walking around or light house-work I also bought the Sennheiser PX 100's which have even better sound and are more comfortable for longer use.

The armband that comes with this is great and you don't have to pay extra for it like you would with an ipod. I also own an older 256mb version of this product. It received alot of abuse but still works fine. It also comes with a rubber housing so if you bang your arm against the wall it won't break. Operating the unit is a no brainer, you just attach the USB cable to the player and your computer. It then acts as a hard drive which Windows will automatically read. A little window will pop up asking if you want to open files in the removal disk. Then, all you have to do is drag and drop your MP3 files and you are set. It comes with a CD with software but it's not really necessary. The software does have an owners manual that is much better than the written documentation that comes in the box so you may want to install it anyway.

A prior reviewer complained you could not put songs in folders. This is not true. You can organize your songs in folders on your computer then simply drop them into the player. When you want to change folders during use just press in the wheel and select "skip folder." You can then rotate the wheel to the folder you want. There are many options available, for example you can set it to play random songs or you can play them in order. If you like to play folders in order you may want to put a number in front of each folder or it will play them in alphabetical order.

There are several equilizer presets such as classical, jazz, rock, or custom. I set mine to normal because I read that you lose a little sound quality to distortion if you use a preset. Battery life is good, I didn't count the hours of use but it lasted quite a long time and the batteries are small and cheap so is not a large concern. I wish however the armband had a small slot in it to hold an extra battery. It's a bummer to run out of juice while on the trail or in the gym but that's a picky complaint.

There are other goodies as well such as FM radio, microphone to record voice and even mp3 encoding capability but I have not tried them out. I only use as an mp3 player.

The bottom line is that if you are looking for a player to take with you to the gym then look no further. It has good sound, good battery life, good options, good armband, and is easy to use. What more do you want?

Love my Creative Zen Nano.......2007-01-31

I love this thing. It was a great value, love the arm strap so I can run with it when I use my sports head phones. Love the pink. Easy to add music directly from CD w/o storing on computer. I will consider this brand when I am ready to get a bigger player. I already filled this one, that is why only 4 stars.

MP3 player.......2007-01-27

My item came quickly and was just as described. My daughter loves it. the only thing she doesn't care for are the big ear plugs---wished they were smaller to fit in her ears. Other than that, she really likes it. It was easy to load music on, etc.
