So I've had ipods and now my zune die on me (zune works but is in a blur screen and refuses to update firmware).

So i need another one.

I'v been lookingat the same one.. anyone have it?

I have been looking at this one as well, a friend at work has this model and it works awesome. It plays .avi files really well, much nicer than with my ipod which is a pain in the *** to get movies on with all the converting that has to be done. Plus I like the idea of expanded memory, thats a huge plus. And it's sooooo much cheaper than its competition. I'm considering picking one up real soon.

zyepher

Well if you look at it this way, if you get the 16gb. in like 8 months they'll have 32gb sd cards and boom you got 48 gb's

R3dLine

Exactly, plus the 16gb is $180 and it functions better than the ipod and has the same features if not more. What more could you want? lol

zyepher

180? where

i don't understand why more people don't use their cell phone.
4gb or 8gb of music should be more than enough for any given time.

zyepher

On the roads, trips, etc.

Music is very important for me plus sound quality ain't the same.

zyepher

r3dline!

Off that link in the first post for the amazon site, it was posted for $180. You posted the link zyepher :P I also agree the cell phone's lack in sound quality, plus the mp3 players come in handy especially when you have a usb ready car deck. Never have to deal with CDs again

zyepher

haha sorry thats amazon.

oh snap i just noticed the 32gb and the 4gb are the same size. trade and swap :bowdown:

Futureshop has the 4, 8 and 16gb. The 16gb is $220. Still cheaper than the ipod and you dont have to buy alll those gay accessories. lol

zyepher

I think im gona get the 16gb tomorow

R3dLine

I think i may pick one up this week aswell, let me know where you find the best price.

zyepher

futureshop generally is good priced and u have no hassle returns.

zyepher

i.e. its about $180 on ebay roughly. so it aint cheaper than that

buddhafest

The Creative Zen is an awesome player, I got the 8GB for $99 from Dell a couple of months back.

It's so slim, its literally the size of a credit card you don't even know its in your pocket.


I can't see anyone being unsatisfied from this purchase.

zyepher

Boom got the 16gb one for $216 afre tax at futureshop

R3dLine

nice!! ... does the 16gb have an expandable memory slot. I remember seeing somewhere that the 4 and 8gb had expandable memory and then for the 16gb it said "Not Applicable" for expandable memory. I would assume that all 3 models would have expandable memory.

zyepher

ya it does. i also like the iaudio 7 d2 with touchscreen as well
