I received one of these as a birthday present a few years ago as a cheaper alternative to iPods.

They are very small, small enough to fit into your palm, I love how it feels because it's very smooth and all edges and corners are curved. The black plastic is scratch resistant and over the course of a year only got a few scratches over the screen. The screen is very small and I personally don't like it much as I prefer the clear simple layout of iPods whereas this one is more coloured.

The thing that stood out most to me about this product was the joystick control. It moves faster than an iPod would and then has a back button and play/pause button next to it, theses two buttons can be hard to click as you have to really make sure you press for it to work. I think there are only a few variations of colour for this mp3 player and if you've read my other mp3 reviews you know I love colours!!

The next Christmas I got an iPod and much much prefer it to this creative zen personally as the screen is clearer and it is much easier to hold. I recommend this as a cheaper alternative to an iPod or for younger teenagers but definitely for people with large hands, even my hands were a little bit because my thumb sometimes ached as it had to awkwardly bend to use the joystick.
