I had a 1gb Creative Zen Nano for about 8 months and then it began shutting
off as soon as I started it. Went to their web site and learned about
updating Firmware and did so. It worked for two days then began shutting off
again. Went back to web site and went to discussion group there to learn
that there are about 1,000 customers with the exact same problem. Creative
was reacting to all of them as if there was no such problem and there was no
fix or solution.

I will never buy anything Creative Labs sells again.

I am looking at three different MP3 players, all in the 2-6 GB range, and
price range at about $100-$150.

Sandisk Sansa C150 2gb ($100 at Walmart)
Sandisk Sansa E250 2gb ($130 at Walmart)
Philips Gogear HD1630 6GB ($160 at ...You guessed it...Walmart)

I am begging for any feedback on these three PRIOR to buying. I would like
to learn about any bugs before I give up my cash.
I am also open to other suggestions.

Thanks
Chuck
