SPECS
TYPE - Zen NuVo N200 white
Capacity - 252mb
DATE - March 15, 2005
PRICE - $79 with 10 rebate
COUNTRY - US of A
ACCESSORIES - none

SOUND QUALITY - Good wish fm was a bit better but digital fm is hard to get clear reception. The white head phone from creative is the best small head phone compare to the ipod or even the sony mini disc NH1 head phones. It just has the right lenghth for joggoing too.

USER INTERFACE - hard to find the record function. wish they had a record button separate for quick access. small display hard to see. scrolling only forward not backwards....makes finding present stations much harder.
SOME COMMENTS - like it? LOVE IT can record from my Mini Disc to mp3 for voice recorderings
BATTERY LIFE - Recording mp3 drains the battery fast. Rechargable batter doesn't work well with this.

Wish list for this player: Option for usb charge...better fm reception and record in wma or mp3 formatte

This player is so tiny and very cute and modern clean looking. The rubber shield is nice to keep the player from scratches and the clip is nice. The arm ban is a bit big and clumsy looking for a player this size. I didn't find the lanyard when i bought this player but there is a hole for the lanyard.

it has a wonder full built clip with white rubber plastic protective case which allows you to hook your usb and headphone without taking it off. the only time you need to take off the case if when you change your battery. Mine is white and 256mb...i want to upgrade to the one gig.

SOME COMMENTS - like it? LOVE IT can listen to NPR and record bits from it.
BATTERY LIFE - good usb charger but only wish is that they make a universal usb charger like the NuVo N200.

Wish list for this player: universal usb plug. if they made it for the tiny n200 they can make it for the rhomba.

Got it on ebay auction drop with proceeds going to the tsunami victims. it came with out any cables.

so i had to buy the special cables from Creative. At first it didn't work. Then i down loaded the driver and upgraded the firmwear and i was so excited to see it come alive. Almost returned it to Auction Drop but what the heck the proceeds goes to the Tsunami victims right??. So i went to best buy and bought the N200. then came home to play around with the Rhomba which came alive. So i have two players. I bought the $16 warrenty or upgrade plan. I'm thinking of upgrading to another Creative N200 player to another one but can't decide which just yet. there are so many options and just a little bit of difference between the variety of Creative line of product choices.
