Advantages: easy to use

Disadvantages: short battery life

I bought this mp3 player about a year ago and it pretty much does what it sais on the box! The Zen Stone is easy to understand, it's easy to charge BUT....the battery life seems to be quite low on this one. It does promise around 14 hours of playing time but even when fully charged, the most I've gotten out of it is about 3 hours. Which is a bit disappointing when you want to use it on a long train ride. I had another Creative mp3 player before this one that took AAA batteries and that's one feature I do miss in the Zen Stone. Apart from the short battery life, I find this mp3 player is easy to use, has loads of space for the money and the headphones that come with it aren't too bad either! Overall, I'll give it 4 stars, but be aware that it's mostly suitable for short trips if you don't have access to a computer or anything else with a USB on it. So in conclusion; if you want a good, handy, pretty little mp3 player for that short commute to work; this is the one for you!

Summary: good for short trips. Helps if you have a friend with a laptop you can get some power from
