 zen armband November 17, 2008
works great, slides in the back, you dont need anything else. it has the controls embossed in the front and doesnt quite line up, but its close enough. you cant see the screen when its in the armband, but you dont really need to when your listeningto 200+ songs on random.
Great quality, long velcro October 26, 2008
True you can't see the screen, but you can skip songs and adjust volume, you have these embossed buttons on top of its Zen's counterparts. The material feels top quality and is long enough for Schwarzenegger use -- in fact, the excess surplus can become bothering.
 Don't waste your money October 4, 2008
As others have noted, the biggest negative is you can't see the screen. It's also too easy to hit the wrong button with this. And, when I have used it for running, the ZEN ends up very wet with sweat. All around bad design. Don't waste your money.
Why Didn't I Read the Reviews?! September 12, 2008
Just aweful! I love just about everything Creative makes, and this is the 3rd Creative media player I've purchased, but this armband... sux. I also have a little 1 gig mp3 player with a simple armband that works kind of like a belt buckle. Works great. How come they didn't use something like that? This thing has to wrap around and around your arm in order to use up any remaining slack in the band. The player is totally hidden, even the buttons. So, unless you have the various menus completely commited to memory, forget about navigating around once you put it in the band. On top of that, the material is so strong that when I tried to take matters into my own hands and cut a space in it for the window, none of the knives I own could do the job without destroying the whole thing. Complete waste of money.
 does what it supposed to do. September 3, 2008

I've read a number of bad reviews for this product and reluctantly purchased it a couple of weeks ago to use my Zen while running without having to hold it in my hand. The armband is not perfect but I feel that it does what it is supposed to do. The biggest complains I have heard include the following:
1. It is diffcult to securely put the armband on. Personally I do not think it is that hard. I agree that it would be better if it was more elastic.
2. Can't see the screen. Not a problem to me because I put on a playlist and have no reason to look at the screen during a workout. Only problem occurs if you accidently push a button that cancels out of the playlist and you don't what to push to restart it without looking at the screen.
3. Can't turn on or lock the player without taking it out. You can do these things easy enough by touch.
