#creative_zen_vision_m I brought this on the day it came out in the UK, i have droped it several times, once on concerete and it took a chip of the outside casing out and it still works perfectly. I love it. It's my baby.
Creative are the best. I had a creative before that lasted a year or two, but this one has lasted me years and i have almost filled the full 30GB, well i had, but i deleted some movies of it, and so i've almost filled it again. I just wish the 60GB had come out at the same time as the 30GB, cause i would have got that one instead.
Great for playing movies and music and pictures.
Best MP3 EVER!
I think my friend has her mp3 which is 2 versions older then this one and it still works, or if it doesn't it only recently broke.
Creative you can trust.
