Not heard a bad comment about the Zen, bit less trendy than the philips but functionally good, also found it for ?100 at other site (if it's ever in stock).

Number Three:

Found this for ?75 in my local currys, good price and good reviews reference sound quality drag and drop etc. A tad old though, interface doesn't have searches by album/artist etc

Vote now!

I like the Zen...

[Bar Wench]

I'd go with the Zen. We've had nothing but good experiences with them. Also my Brother has played with the other models extensively and he says they weren't up to much cop.

[Uncle Mort]

I've had the Zen for some time now and I find it to be excellent. Copying files, creating playlist even transferring video is very easy.

Battery life is good but note that it doesn't have a mains charger. Not a problem as I just plug it into the PC overnight to charge.

I recommend it.

[Barman]

Two votes for the Zen then... 

Wenchy doesn't count 'cos she is a girl

I got called a geek in a different thread. If I am going to be called names I should at least have my opinion listened to!

 

[Grumpmeister]

Seeing as Mr Wench is reported to peruse these pages I'll refrain from making the obvious comment about Barman only remarking about Wenchy not counting because she laughed when he told her it was 6 inches 

[Bar Wench]

I never listen to boys when they start talking measurements. Divide it by two and CHOP IT IN HALF! 

[Grumpmeister]

  I KNEW IT!!!! You are really Miss D and I claim my ?5

I think you'll find that most females harbour secret wishes of chopping things in half.

Thats why we have that special little mark on the calendar so we know what time of the month to hide all the sharp objects

Indeed, my Mrs chops my earnings in half every feckin month!

Samsung gone and out of the running now, it was the rank outsider anyway.

The Zen is what I want but the ?100 is still not in stock and the next cheapest i can find is ?139, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
