My New MP3 Player
I’ve finally stepped into the 21st century and bought myself an MP3 player. I’ve grown tired of lugging around a CD player and a pile of CDs when I go on holiday and being without music any other time I’m not at home/in my car/on holiday.
So last night I purchased one of these:
The Creative Zen Vision:M
Once it arrives and I’ve worked out how all the controls work, I’ll post a mini-review or something.
UPDATE: I received it today (Tues 17th). It’s currently charging, before I start playing with it for the first time. Pics n stuff coming soon!
Specifications:
- 30GB hard drive
- 2.5″ colour screen, 262k colours
- Audio support: WMA (with DRM), MP3, WAV
- Video support: MPEG (1/2/4), DivX (4/5), XviD, WMV9
- Image support: JPEG
- FM radio & recorder
- Syncs with Microsoft Outlook Contacts, Calendar & Tasks
- Up to 14 hours of audio playback or 4 hours of video playback
I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on the Creative players. I'm (still) happy with my iPod, though I really would like to upgrade to an iPod Nano – a friend of mine got one for Christmas. They're so small!
Impatient man you are
I hope you enjoy your new toy, but don’t forget about me in the process :\. Miss you deeply and can’t wait to hold you in my arms again. I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!
Neil: Hopefully it'll arrive today, so I can start playing with it after work… although it will need a full charge first. I'll definitely be doing a review once I've worked out how to use it!
Shana: Yes I know I'm impatient… as soon as Creative had announced this player I knew I wanted it. I kept checking GoAudio's website until they added a price as I hadn't a clue how expensive it would be. So I bought it as soon as I saw a price!
