Strengths: Fast Transfer Cheap easy to use all around good product (and its not an ipod thank god)
Weaknesses: Bulky, really freaking big
Summary: This has never let me down great battery life impossible to break infinite storage space and great upload times. It fits into pockets but you notice it, its bigger than an ipod but its half the price and a better value

Strengths: Very easy software, excellent sound and very easy to use. After six months, mid 2005, it seems to be very tight and I've had no problems (over two thousand songs loaded and hundreds of hours of use)
Weaknesses: Bad batteries, not that easy to read screen.
Summary: This unit has met every test with flying colors in my opinion. I've had no problems with anything and the quality is extremely good. The sound is excellent; after a short amount of use it's very easy to operate from downloading, forming playlists and playing back. I'd tell anyone, and have, that this is a very good unit to purchase. Price in relationship to value is excellent.

Strengths: Cheap, large capacity, sounds great
Weaknesses: Scrolling takes a bit gettting used to. The new case has a window that tends to promote scratching.
Summary: I have used this MP3 player for over a year and so far I love it. I never had any problems. The quality of the music is good, software is easy to use. Plenty of room for songs and any files you want to shove there. Sounds great.

The window on the new cases has made it easier to scratch the screen, but that is my fault for not taking care of it as well as I should have but I still recommend a screen cover. I have never experianced any problems that other people claim to have so I am happy.

Over all this MP3 is the best for you money.

2 Star Reviewi have owned this player for almost a year, i got ...
Strengths: easy software use, good sound quality, cheaper than an ipod
Weaknesses: faulty soldering of wires in almost every model (look on creativelabs forums) crappy batteries,
Summary: i have owned this player for almost a year, i got it for christmas last year. warranty was only 90 days, but i figured it would be alright, no, june 2004 about 6 months after i got it, headphone jack goes bust, now i can only hear it through the left earphone, no sound in the right. so i dont bring it to camp with me, bringing my cd player and my bulky pack of cds, which was reliable and no charging outlet needed. i get home from camp and guess what. now the rechargable battery wont charge, and creative technical support is a big pain in the neck. now its almost christmas 2004, and im debating whether an mp3 player is really worth my time, ipods are so expensive though, and they are popularized way too much
