Need CAGs Review of Creative NOMAD Zen Xtra 40GB MP3 Player

[Ecofreak]

If anyone has this MP3 player, could you give me a review of it? I've done a lot of research about this player online and most reviews don't really talk about how long they had the player at the time of the review, unless they have a negative opinion.
Things I would like to know - is the headphone jack still operable? LCD screen still working? Does the face plate pop off? Other information is also highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Don't own one myself but one of my friends has been using one for about 4 months with no problems so far.

40 GB of songs? I suggest just passing this if you really don't think you'll be able to get up to 40 GB of songs onto it. I mean, HOLY ****.

it costs as much as an iPod with far less space.

This player was the best money I have ever spent.

I recommend that sucker WHOLE HEARTEDLY

I think you got those two mixed up? Less money and same space?

Right now I have 41.8 gigs of mp3s on my computer.

Of course, I rip everything at 320 kbs.

I have one 80gig drive just for music, and then I have another 160 gig drive for everything else. The 160 gig drive has about 40 gigs free.

40 gigs is a lot of music, Ive got about 10 gigs myself, but I wouldnt be going all crazy man

[pimp_daddy_smurf]

i only have a 40 gig HD............

and my mp3 pluer is 256 MB, and its all i need, it holds about 40-50 songs and its great(very light and lasted a few months so far)

yea im currently in the market for a hdd mp3 player also. i've been concidering it for a while now since its going for such a low price right now on outpost (http://shop1.outpost.com/product/4078602). ive also read a lot of reviews about it, so far the only fault i find in it is its large size.

and hdd mp3 players have a lot more use then just playing music, most u can use an external hdd or even load windows off them. i plan to load a few games on to the hdd so i can play them on my friends/familys comps when i visit them (if its possible, im not a 100% on it).

I'm waiting for a 60+ gig iriver to come out before I think about making a purchase.

Right now my slimx 550 is enough for me.
