Creative Zen Nano Plus (1GB, Black)

Pros: Large memory, Battery operated, FM recorder, Easy to navigate, Plug and Play, Drag and Drop Music

Cons: Wish it came with a neck lanyard

Summary: This player is exactly what I was looking for. I hate players with rechargeable batteries because when the battery dies on you in the middle of a trip, you've got no music, whereas with this player, when you're AAA battery dies, you simply drop another one in. The cattery last somewhere around 16 hours at last check.

I also love the FM recording ability. At first, before I bought the item, I thought that the FM receiver would be horrible. It turns out that I can pick up all the same stations that I can in a car. It's that good. The recording option is awesome. I can record my favorite mourning talk show with it, and listen to it after i get out of work. You can record up to 16 hours of FM recording with it.

Navigation is a snap. Very easy to flip through the many available features that this palyer has to offer. Folders for music make arranging your music easier.

Plug and play was a snap. Windows XP notices it as a massive storage device and I use USB 1.1 to upload. I think it is USB 2.0 Compliant.

One of the other best features is that you can drop and drag the music onto the player. This eliminates havng to use any program to transfer the music and eliminates anti-piracy restrictions.

All in all, the Creative Zen Nano Plus is one of the best MP3 players available on the market. The price I think is very fair for what the player has to offer!

Rock On!!!!!!!!!
