how muchare they canadian and where could i buy a zen touch!

So it REQUIRES you to use their stupid software?!?

NEVER would I use such a thing. I can see that they include software, but force you?

I tried their first gen mp3 jukebox, and upon learning this, back it went.

Too bad, because I really like other things about them and don't like the ipod.

When will you idiots learn?

No FM?

Ok I like this thing and everything but i just got it yesterday and mine already froze bc i think it was because i halfway charged it used it a little and re charged it now it froze. Any suggestions??

hi can you record sound on your zen touch if so how do you do it?
many thanks for your concern

Thanks for the info on the Zen Micro. From what I'd read previously, it seemed it could be used as an external HD without faffing about with software. This is obviously not so! Thank goodness I didn't buy one, as I use college & library computers & need extra storsge!

Thanks again

The Zen Touch isn't a BAD unit overall. Sound quality is excellent, and the transfer rate is second to none as long as your USB controller can keep up. (If your USB2.0 controller is built into the motherboard, you might get marginally better performance than you would with a PCI card) However, in order to transfer files to the Zen Touch, you need to install the drivers. The Zen Touch is NOT mass-storage compliant, which means that it will NOT show up as a drive in Windows Explorer or whatever. Nomad Explorer will let you store files on the device but you can't actually modify those files without copying them to the hard disk first.

In my opinion if you get a Zen Touch over one of the alternatives, do it for the battery life. I've never actually drained the battery EXCEPT when it's hooked to the PC. Bear this in mind; the battery will drain quite quickly when docked ("docked" in this case meaning being connected to the PC AND having either MediaSource or Nomad Explorer loaded) unless you also have it charging via the mains adaptor. In actual use however, the battery lasts for ages.

I recently purchased a Zen Touch. The sound quality is awsome, and the battery lasts for almost a week.

Anybody want to trade for an Xtra? I hate the touchpad. Gimme a wheel anytime.

Creative Zen Touch Player: Love Me NOT!
I bought a Zen Touch 20. I put about 10hrs. on it then the thing shut off. I charged it, Nothing! Then I hooked it to the charger and turned it on. It stayed on for about 10 seconds before "Overheating Shutting down" appeared on the screen. I tried all kinds of things, Nothing! Called tech support. They need your visa card number to even talk to you! They instructed me to send it back. So I pay the shipping. (Keep in mind the thing has only ever been on 10hrs.) A few days later I get an email. They checked it out and it doesn't work. Then the good part. "To complete the processing of your RMA, the following is required: A Diagnostic and Handling fee of $24.95 is needed." So I called them. You get passed around from person to person no one can tell you why I have to pay $24.95 for "A Diagnostic and Handling fee" for their new pile of crap. So they hold my broken play. I'm done with Creative’s B.S. I’m contacting my state offices

driver

I have just bought the Zen, what I want to know is can I change the battery myself or is it like the I-pod and I have to send it off and pay to have it done?

10 times better than ipod

If possible to change the HD if is broken.

i have ordered this player after reading the review, all the points are very true, i would have to say that this product is better than apples ipod

please i want the driver for zen touch for windows xp?

i have owned a zen xtra (60 GB) for about 2 years i think and it still ticking like a clock. exept for one time when i dropped it and it landed on the headphone-plug. then the right speaker went dead. i sent an e-mail to support and i got a lot of help from them. i sent it in and they fixed it and shipped it back. for free. by the way - i heard that the hd in the player is the same ones that is in laptops, and this one guy just opened it up and changed it to a 100 GB. Does anybody know if this is possible?

This is a great product and i am very pleased with it thank you so much for inventing it.

Sound quality is excellent, battery lasts a long time, overall its an excellent unit if you don't use it while excercising, or any other activity where the unit isn't completely secure. The unit size and weight is such that one drop will damage your hard drive. Once your hard drive is gone you can't use it. it will not boot up as the player cannot access the hard drive. accidents happen but you need a new player if it happens with this unit. Go smaller with a better case. In most cases the case will look fine but the weight and shock of a fall transfers directly to the hard drive.
