    I'm picking up one of these soon, Best Buy is having them on sale for 20 bucks more than my newly purchased Sandisk Sansa 4 Gig. I'm returning the Sansa and buying this. Does anyone here have one of these? I've heard nothing but good about them, and I love how they look.



    Please, no iPod supporters here. I absolutely hate Apple and iPod, so if you post here promoting iPod, I will negative rep you.

    I would trust if it thats what you want. No first hand experience with it tho.

    I have had one since the 4th of December and I'm quite happy with it, my only problem, is the actual library management and syncingm it's so awkward in comparison to iTunes which I've always loved, I had a 20gb iPod which I adored but it was black and white and well, it broke, but the iTunes support was so simple..and quick...but with creative, I was angry, I've got loads of duplicate tracks on my Zen now as well as mislabelled tracks, but if you looked into my iTunes library..everything is perfect, with All the album art and proper names, even lyrics..
    Another problem with the Zen VM is getting album art to display, I had to download a lot of 3rd party software to get what should have been a simple task onto the Zen.
    So what I've mentioned there is all the bad stuff I've to say about the ZVM.

    In fact, that's all really computer/software related problems more than anything -
    The player itself well,
    Great battery life!
    Great Sound!
    FM Radio is..amazing signal can be a bit weak at times, but it's amazing, as well as recording directly from the radio.
    This player has it all!
    Go for it!

    I have done a lot of research into this like months back comparing it with the IPOD VIdeo

    Me - I dont like Ipods - simple - Dont know why but i dont

    I met the Zen vision:M when exploring their site and was amazed by the features they have and it was 30GB!! thats frigging huge :D with radio, voice recorder, compatible with DivX, mpegs [watch dvds] , image compatible - jpegs and much more

    Also if you put 'Zen vision:M vs IPod video' in google you will see a link - First one i believe ;) Shows you the quality - Th screen quality unmatachable compared to video

    And as i recommended mav to buy it and tell me how it is - He has problems with album art and duplicate songs as he said ;) But

    I didnt buy it till he told me how it is ... So i am going to buy it today yey!!!

    Black colour pwns :D
