3 out of 5 stars Zen 4gb   July 19, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

The zen 4gb has a lot of well thought out features. Such as playlists being resumed after the device has been powered off. Creative has thought about usability quite a bit and it shows.
I generally use linux, and the player while not recognized as a mass storage device is still usable with the gnomad2 program or many multimedia apps that support the mtp protocol such as rhythmbox, amarok or exhaile. However playlist management is a problem. After not finding a linux app that let me edit the playlists as I desired. I installed the zen media explorer under windows only to find its playlist management to be only marginally better. I was looking for something to shuffle a playlist after it is created as I get tired of hearing the songs constantly in the same order.

Also I have had to reformat the zen twice with the zen software as the player would get into a state where no files could be copied to the device or playlists could not be created. The first time this happened I thought it was possibly due to a flaw with the linux apps. The second time was after using only the creative software. This is makes me worry about the device lifespan.



5 out of 5 stars IPOD went out the window at 55MPH   July 17, 2008
The Creative Zen puts the IPOD to shame! I was so frustrated with my IPOD it went out the window at 55MPH! After doing much research I decided to go with the Zen and it was a great decision. I love it, it's easy to use from listening to downloading...I LOVE IT!

1 out of 5 stars Not Helpful with Audible Books   July 15, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I bought the Creative Zen 4 GB primarily for hearing audio books from Audible.com. Even when fully charged, I have had trouble with the Creative Zen not responding. The only solution is to reset the player--which I have had to do a number of times since my May purchase. Audio book tracks are longer than most music tracks. When I reset, it takes me back to the beginning of a track (and sometimes to the beginning of the book). I am tired of having to listen to the same tracks over and over. In addition, I can't get the Sync Manager to work. I would really like my money back.


5 out of 5 stars In Tune with the Zen   July 15, 2008
I was so happy with the product. I bought it as a father's day gift to my husband and he was taken by the zen. He was very impressed with the functions such as videos, music and pictures. He liked the fact that it has a bigger screen and good memorie. I would say that I rather have a longer cable to plug it in the computer but other than that the product is amazing and cheaper than the I-pod...plus you can use any download programs you want unlike I-pod that you "Must" download only I-pod products =<.
