Creative Zen (2GB)

Pros: doesn't need the creative software/drivers to be install to transfer music onto the player's built in storage, built-in fm radio, also it has a built-in SD slot which supports some SDHC cards

Cons: display gets scratched easily, synching music/media can take some time, videos have to be converted, small built-in storage, sometimes the zen has issues where the screen will be white the fix is let the battery die out then it should be ok.

Summary: if you want an affordable media player, that supports video, podcasts, mp3, and a SD slot, then this is would be great for you. Make sure to get a screen protector, so the display won't get scratched. If you have a hard time with the white screen error, there should be a lot of posts about it online to help you out. The display is somewhat dim when in Flourescent lighting. I still use this player and it's still great.
