Killing Apple's Shuffle stone-dead? Jon's not so sure…
But this pales into insignificance next to the second handicap, which is that you can't actually browse the music on the player freely while listening to music. Try switching albums in the music browser mode and the player instantly starts playing from...

ZEN STONE PLUS 2GB BLUE
Expert review by (macformat.co.uk)
The iPod may be a cultural phenomenon, but that doesn't mean it's the best media player ever. Step forward the Creative Zen Stone Plus, a featherweight marvel that features twice the storage of the 1GB shuffle and yet manages to cost less
Costs less than the shuffle for more, Includes a screen, Recognised by iTunes, Available in six colours
Available in six colours, Can be sluggish to use and fill
Not as well-integrated with the Mac as an iPod shuffle, but it's cheaper and cuter

Targeting the iPod shuffle on its own ground, the Creative Zen Stone Plus brings a petite chassis, 2GB capacity and bargain price tag to the party - and trumps its Apple rival with a built-in speaker and screen.
A superb package that has 'value for money' written all over it, Creative's Zen Stone Plus With Built-In Speaker is pretty much an iPod shuffle plus a screen - and the bonus of a small speaker. It looks great, does everything you ask and costs just...

Hot on the heels of the Creative Stone comes the Plus, with a new screen and double the storage. And all for the price of a Shuffle
Expert review by : electricpig (electricpig.co.uk)
The Zen Stone Plus is laden with features, has great sound, a top battery life and is cheap. It's rock 'ard and ready for action!
Tiny, great battery life, and extremely cheap.
Supplied headphones aren't the greatest and there's no hold button.

Easy to use, plenty of storage space, tiny, and available in a variety of different colours – there’s not much to dislike about this rock-solid MP3 player. Creative Zen Stone Plus 4GB is tagged with MP3 player, creative and portable. Select a tag (MP3...

Expert review by : Danila Kudryavtsev (ixbtlabs.com)
Shortly after the advertisement of a screenless Zen Stone, which we have reviewed earlier, Creative has announced the release of an improved model - Zen Stone Plus. It is equipped with a small monochrome OLED display. As we may recall, the previous...
