Let the music heal your soul
After a period of considering to purchase an Mp3 player+External HDD or to get a very very good Mp4 player, I've decided to choose the latter. I guess an Mp4 player suits my needs better, because I know I won't want a usual mp3 player that has very limited storage space.
Ipod is way too expensive for me to afford, so I've opted for the Creative Zen Vision M for its value for money and its functionality.
Here are a few lines of reviews from Cnet.com (Compared head to head to Ipod Classic)
- Of course, one could argue that the screen matters more than the container, and here the Vision:M definitely has the iPod beat. Although both devices have 2.5-inch, 320x240-pixel LCDs, the Vision:M's displays a whopping 262,000 colors to the iPod's 65,000. Video and photos positively pop off the screen, which exhibits excellent viewing angles and much better brightness and color than the iPod's
- Creative's best innovation is the Shortcut button, which you can configure to perform a commonly used function: for example, randomly playing all your tracks, starting and stopping recording, adding a track to an on-the-fly playlist, and so on.
- On top of its superior screen, the 30GB Creative Vision:M has an FM radio tuner and recorder, a voice recorder, and sync tools for carrying around your Outlook data.
- Vision:M supports a much wider variety of video formats than the iPod: DivX, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, WMV, and XviD among them. Users who already have a library of videos will find it relatively easy to copy them to the player: Creative's software automatically converts the files that require it.
- Its lightning-fast FM tuner, for instance, fills as many of the 32 available preset slots as possible. You can also manually add presets, assign names to the stations
- The Vision:M does, however, let you listen to your tunes while viewing a slide show of your photos. You can also browse and view photos individually, even marking favorites for a custom slide show. However, when selecting the My Slideshows option, the Vision:M refers you to Creative's Media Explorer utility for creating slide shows on your PC. Problem is, there's no such option in that software. You have to delve into the help file to find out how to create custom slide shows (which, thankfully, is drag-and-drop easy).
The Creative MP4 player is now retailing at around RM650-750, but I've seen offers coming in at about RM450-550 (brand new!!) but not very attractive rate for second hand (RM450-550).
I'm still looking around so any of you who knows any great deals please let me know. I'm on a very tight budget for this little gem (hope to get RM450 brand new or RM430 max for a second hand one).
I've contacted on seller via sms, asking him/her this:
And this is what I got from him/her..
Ok first of all,.. I'm Julian not Julie.. and secondly I don't want a PSP!
