    hmm... what are the best options for an MP3/video player with over 30 gigs at the moment?

    I think thats incorrect

    Creative specs and some reviews claim that it can support up to any SD card... As in, if you have a 32 SD card, it will be supported by the ZEN. The only bad part about the SD card in the ZEN is that it cannot be merged with the actual Flash memory ie. you can't transfer your data over.

    Really would depend on preference.. As in what features you are looking for?

    Archos(very high capacity, Wi-fi on certain models, little big but, Video amazing, Audio is so-so ) , Zune's, iPod Vid(All round) and Classic(All round), Creative Zen Vision M(All round) and W(Video more then music) and the Cowon D2 I think

    Isn't that the same in the Sansa, cause i got a micro sd for the e260 and the memory are seperate, i.e. you have to switch to msc mode to transfer to the micro sd and mtp for the flash. I don' think the Zen would support up to 32gb, but i think on cnet it said up to 16gb. well probably could happen after you update firmware.

    @fearless, a mp3 video player with 30gb, hmm, ipod video or the creative zen vision m, like bigM said (i dunno if the zen vision m is still being made though) but if you want a full video player like the screen takes up the whole player, get the pvp's but they are bulky as hell, definitely not like how the ipod touch looks.

    the archos is too bulky.

    the zune or creative zen are probably good options though. iv never really thought about getting a zune before though... are the reviews for them fairly solid?

    @Zen W
    ^probably sounds the same as the zen vision m, not worth it though, i think 60gb zen vision: m is the same price now, or cheaper if it's on sale.

    oops you changed your mind already haha...

    hahaha i just changed it again.

    there is an 80 gig zune coming out in november for 249 dollars in the states, that will be the one i get... hopefully it will last forever.

    250 bucks is such a great deal, il be able to put a bunch of top gear and house episodes on there ontop of my 25 gig music collection :D

    ZEN W and M are 2 completely different devices lol

    The W is a primarliy a Video player, with a 4.3 inch screen, whilst the Zen M has a 2.5 inch screen. Both screen are same resolution 256 k. Also the M is discontinued, so there aren't many left around

    ^I know that just saying that the W is not worth it cause it basically has the same features as the M, just with a bigger screen, well thats what the reviews at cnet said, and the W is released before the M anyways. and from what i remembered the M had better reviews than the W, i think it was on IGN or something lol. (i wanted the M badly back then)

    lol the W is too big and the M is too ugly.

    overall the zune looks like the best package.. the 80 gig is the same price as the 80 gig ipod, but the screen on the zune is massive at 3.2" and it has wifi.
     
  12. do u know how much is the Zen in AUD??

    shiiit iv been reading about the zune software and it sounds like crap.

    if i buy it il be installing it the first time on my relative's computer, and apparently it will recognize that one as the home computer forever.. which isnt something i want.

    with the ipod it just syncs to itunes and i can drag and drop... fark, now i dunno what i want to get. good software is like 50% of what makes a portable media player worth the purchase
