[apocalypsos]

Ways in which the Creative Zen I just picked up is already better than an iPod, and I haven't even done anything with it yet --

-- I spent $260 bucks on a 40-gig Zen, which is $240 less than I would have spent on an iPod.
-- It's got a removable battery, so this way, if it runs out, I can just go to Best Buy and pick up another one.
-- It comes with a leather carrying case. (Hear that, Apple? And it doesn't get scratches straight out of the box like it's made out of butter and Play-Doh, either!)
-- It smells like new mp3 player.

Oh, please, please live up to my current state of raptute when I actually turn you on and upload songs onto you tonight. *cuddles*

I needed something to go running with as Bloomsday approaches and I must train, so I bought a little 512MB SanDisk MP3 player. It stores music in flash memory, so I use ordinary AAA batteries and will never have to deal with the battery issue. So far, I'm happy. The damn thing is a little bigger than a pack of gum and it does shuffle and stuff. Came with a clear plastic cover and an armstrap, headphones, necklace loop, USB connector and that's about it.

I love it bunches. And you know....nine hours of music is plenty for me. Swapping music in and out takes just a couple of minutes.
