I was just interested to see what people thought about this player. Its the same size as the previous zen micro ( 2 mm. thinner ) and has a 8gb capacity with removable battery.

Which is a shame, cos Creative make some damned fine-sounding players. However, if my experience of the original Micro is anything to go on, I won't be touching this particular part of Creative's range with a bargepole.

There have been assorted problems with Zen Micros from the outset. I had my share, so I went for the ultra reliable workhorse that is the Zen Touch instead. (Incidentally, if DAP makers want a lesson in how to build machines robustly, they need look no further than that baby!)
 
True I have heard of some problems will the previous zen micros. When I spotted these for sale on ebay I started looking for reviews but could not find any.What I find interesting about these is the price ( on ebay ) is about the same as the Sony A1000 and it is smaller in size, has a colour screen, holds photo's, has fm radio & recorder. The battery life is only rated at 15 hours (10-12 in real life ?) but because it is removable you can buy a spare and swap them when required.
