This razor sharp display is packaged in a device that weighs just 2.1 ounces and measures 3.26 x 2.16 x .44 inches (W x H x D). The internal battery powers the Zen for up to 25 hours of continuous audio playback and up to five hours of continuous video playback. Use the Zen's SD slot to expand your portable media library with music, photos and videos stored on your SD card. There's also a handy built-in microphone for capturing notes on the go.

Features
Load up up your favorite songs, as well as your album art, and get going with the Zen. The device supports iTunes Plus tracks from the iTunes store and MP3 and WMA tracks. Subscription and pay-per-download music services are supported, as well. Discover, save, and play millions of songs when subscribing to services such as Yahoo Music Unlimited and Napster To Go. You can even tune into your favorite stations with the Zen's FM radio. The radio allows you to save up to 34 presets.

The Zen has you covered when it comes to video, too. The device supports MJPEG, WMV9 and--with transcoding--MPEG1 and 2, MPEG4-SP, DivX 4 and 5, and XviD. Enjoy purchased or rented movies and TV shows from online services such as Amazon Unbox and Walmart.com. Watch home videos. Even load your Tivo To Go movies and TV shows onto your Zen.

Additional features include a clock and alarm function, volume restriction, eight equalizer settings, and a USB hard drive mode, which allows you to drag and drop files directly to and from your Zen.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Player!   July 21, 2008
I really enjoy this product. It is so small and convenient. The keypad is very easy to use. THe screen is wonderful. I especially like the fact that the battery has a very significant life span. I would recommend this player to anyone shopping for a good quality mp3 player with space for a decent amount of media.


5 out of 5 stars no problem!   July 20, 2008
I have never had a problem with this player locking up or stalling which was a MAJOR problem I had with my Zen micro (especially as it got older).
I love how you can change the backround and how must faster it is from other creative players I have experienced (zen touch, micro, stone plus, and a muvo).
I am more than happy with this player and how sleek and small it is, It was totally worth going broke over.

my suggestion for those of you who end up with a product that works less than perfect is to switch your zen out for a new one. Faulty models exist with every company.



4 out of 5 stars good so far   July 17, 2008
No complaints. I only use it for music. I like the bookmark feature so I can mark songs I want to delete. Battery life is good.


3 out of 5 stars Good, but ..   July 11, 2008
1. The buttons are stiff and need some getting used to. It isn't a feather touch device by any standards.
2. I got "Audio Format Is Not Supported" errors on some of my mp3s copied through Winamp. This is not on account of format protection issues, but to do with proper file tagging. On syncing the same files through Windows Media Player, they play fine. I'd suggest dumping their software (which takes forever to install), just using WMP (Ver 11).
3. Supplied earphones are not worth their weight in paper.
4. Decently priced and great feature set.



5 out of 5 stars great upgrade from my 1st gen Nano   July 9, 2008
The Zen is a terrific upgrade from my 1st generation Nano. Music was easy to transfer from my iTunes library. (My music is mostly from my own CDs, but if you purchased most of your library from iTunes, this may be an problem for you due to DRM.) With 16GB, there was more than enough room for everything I have. The software is easy to use and functional, and WMP works fine for managing files. Video and sound quality on the Zen are excellent (better headphones should be your first accessory, which is true of every player on the market) and all features work as expected. Using the menus, while not as elegant as on the iPod, is simple enough. The SD slot (uses a separate option on the menu, which takes no time at all to get used to) means you're limited only by the number of cards you want to take along. Great for a long flight, and every SD card I have, regardless of size or speed, has worked fine for audio and video in this player. There are plenty of aftermarket accessories available, and the standard USB connection means I can charge it with my cell phone (Moto RAZR) chargers, which eliminates extra devices from my suitcase.
