Advantages: 150 albums in one small box - great!

Disadvantages: Battery life needs improving

Imagine it - one device that stores ALL your music collection! Sounds good. Now imagine that it;s portable! Now imagine that it looks funky too!

Yep, you've got the Creative Jukebox (or the NOMAD as it is called stateside). This little wonder hold 6Gb of MP3 files which if stored in 128kbps means you can have 150 albums on the little thing. And it is little bigger than a Personal CD player!

The build quality is prettu sturdy, although obviously you have to be gentle carrying aroud a hard drive in your trousers. And the battery life could be longer - a hard drive means you've got moving parts so it is more intensive than a normal RAM based MP3.

But overall, what you have here is a machine that will see the death of the cassette based walkman. As time goes by we'll get bigger hard drives, better battery life and smaller design - but this will do quite happily for now! (Price is at Amazon UK)

Great op. I might just get one now :-) I've got a Rio 600 and the lack of the IBM Microdrive some 6 months after purchase is very disappointing. The Battery life does worry, but 2 packs of rechargeables is very good. Thanks.
