Advantages: Storage is massive

Disadvantages: Has crashed a couple of times and selection bar too sensitive

I've had my sleek photo now for a few years and overall it has served me fairly well. It is a fairly big player compared to its more modern counterparts and is not particullay light either. Having said that the 20GB of storage is massive and I still haven't been able to fill it. My whole music collection fits on this thing. Usefull too is that it also doubles up a 1GB flash memory stick which requires no installation. The player came with a set of headphones and the creative software which contained a music player. The headphones, as with a lot of mp3 player standard headphones, where really rather poor, no bass what so ever, no a dig at creative but more at all manufactures! I did install the music player along with the drivers but never really got in to it, i just use windows media player to download my music. The player also came with a mains adapter, which a lot of mp3 players don't so it can be charged by mains or via the usb cable.
I have like some other peolpe had trouble with the player crashing. I have always just reset it and that seems to do the trick. The selection strip in the middle is also far too sensitive even with the sensitivity down to the minimum. A bit anoying but good for the price.

Summary: Good storage, good sound but crashes can disapoint
