Consumer review (epinions.com)

Creative brings it, slams it on the table, and even talks trash!

Wow, Let me just say, this is BY FAR the best MP3 player I have owned out of, um, 4 questionable mp3 players. DURABILITY: I've had this player for 3 years now, and if that doesn't say something, then you should probably learn to read a little better. ...

Durable, easily upgraded, durable!!!!!

Size, standard "special features", batter life

Great unit

This is one of the earliest jukebox type MP3 players. Don't let the age put you off though. They're still worth picking up, especially since they can be found relatively cheap. With a 10 gig hard drive, hundreds of songs can be stored. This model ...

Stores many songs, recording capabilities, line-out, many features

short battery life, bulky compared with later models, long startup times

Jukebox 2

For the past two years I had a rca lyra 128mb mp3 player. I was happy with with it but i was getting sick of only being able to carry around 25 songs with me, so I decided to look into hard disk mp3 players. After searching through everything from the ...

Rechargeable battery, massive storage, sound quality, and adding custom startup graphics

Playcenter 3, non-joggable, and a small scroll wheel

Nice unit, very durable, not so friendly to folks on the go

Rock solid - Reliably works all the time! Big enough to store what I want.

Bulky, doesn't "save your place" and the fast forward isn't fast enough.

Nice unit, very durable, not so friendly to folks on the go

I have had this unit for some time now and I like it quite a bit. I don't use it as much as I once did since I got an mp3 player in my car but I still bring it with me when I go on a long trip in the van with the family or when I want to listen to ...

Great price/performance!

This is the third MP3 player I have owned, and the second jukebox. I have to say that overall I am really happy with this player. You get a lot of features, and the price is reasonable. Sound quality is fantastic, although it could be a tad louder for ...

Sound quality, interface, battery life, USB 2.0!!

Small display, finicky shuttle/jog control, larger than some players

Great Unit (if only it provided the advertised battery life)

I was all set to buy a CD/MP3 player when I came across this unit (I’ll abbreviate it as JBII throughout this review). At the time (last November) it was $215 at buy.com with a $50 rebate so price wise it was very competitive with the iRiver and ...

Great Sound, Easy Navigation, Reliable

Less than advertised battery life. Major trouble with driver upgrade.
