 Works great January 18, 2008
WE gave 2 of these to my girlfriend's younger siblings as a Christmas gift. They love it. It has the same space as the Ipod shuffle at about half the price and works with Windows Media Player which is nice. It does not require other software though there is an optional download that comes with the MP3 player. Simple, easy, and very small. This is the perfect starter MP3 player for kids and may come in handy for its size for adults.
Dropped mine in the river, and it still worked! January 10, 2008

I'm writing about how durable and sturdy this MP3 player is. I've had mine for about 8 months now, and it has been through a lot. Getting dropped, sat on, dropped in a river bed, left out in the rain, getting run over by a skateboard, and generally misused. BUT IT STILL WORKS GREAT! The music is crisp and clear, loud too for such a little thing. It's easy to use, just plug into your computer's USB port and drag and drop the music you want. No software to install. It's small enough to fit in a pocket, or attach a lanyard to the back. The Stone lasts enough for a good 12-14 hours of constant play, but i never play it that long, which is why I only have to charge it once a week or so. I can even go two weeks without charging it and it plays good. Also, the 1 GB is more than enough for tons of songs. I compress my WMA's and MP3's down a lot, and find that I can fit over 1200 songs on my Zen Stone. In short, it's great for people who want a simple music player that is easy to use and can survive a tornado. Or a teenager.
 Zen Stone 1 Gig January 7, 2008
For the money, this unit was good. I decided, however, to get the 2 gig Stone so I could read the titles of the entries I was playing. However, if you use USB external hard-drives, you need to be cautious about incompatibilities with the Stone players and the HD drivers. The players need to be installed in a certain fashion to avoid crashes. One of my techno-friends is going to show me how to do this one day. In the interim, I don't power up my USB drives when I know I'm going to down files to my Stones. This avoids the problem.
A Great MP3 Player January 2, 2008
The Creative Zen Stone 1 GB MP3 player is a great little device. It's simple to use, tiny and has crystal clear sound quality. I also use it to listen to audio books and it is the easiest audio book player I've ever used. I would highly recommend this product. The downside is the price of the accessories. I think they could be more reasonably priced. Other than that, buy one, you'll love it!
Simple to use, high quality January 1, 2008
I read about this product in a NYT "Best gadgets under $50" gift idea list. They said it was cheaper than an iPod shuffle and held more songs. I bought it for my boyfriend for Christmas and found it was exactly as advertised.
It comes with everything you need: the cord to connect it to your computer as well as earbuds, and the software you need is easily downloadable from the company's website. Even if you don't know much about computers, you can use this.
I'm old enough that I want tech things to be simple and reliable - I don't need every bell and whistle, I just want my mp3 player to play music and not give me any grief. And if it doesn't kill me price wise, that's ideal. That's what this gives you. I liked my boyfriend's so much, I'm probably going to buy myself one soon.
