I just got the creative zen sleek photo!

[drumthrasher]

actually, the zens look way better than the ipod, but when it comes to the functionallity the zens don't stand a chance!

Functionality in what way?

Sound quality/ Sound options is alot more defined, better (Custom EQ, Bass Boost)
I just find it alot easier to find items.

I'd prefer a folder structure though to an ID3 structure to tell the truth mind, though both don't have that.

theres equalizers for the ipod, u can customize them your self too...also has pitch setting and you can change the amount of base you want and treble and stuff also.

In what way other than the Click Wheel? Don't say the user interface, because Creative actually invented that before Apple did.

So what funtions does the iPod have that the Creative lacks? Radio? Recorder? Yeah, sure the iPod has all those, but you need the damn accessories that cost another $30 just to use it.

Yeah, I've got the Zen Micro Photo

 

[alvino]

Yeah, the Zen Micro Photo is nice too. They streamlined it now, looks better.
