Has anyone seen this new player, I am quite excited about it and trying to decide between the 8GB and the 16GB version. It seems to be really good and should be released here in about a week.

Any thoughts on the product in general?

Looks nice I love my Zen Micro photo and this looks like a nice upgrade to consider.
Still not compatible with macs though. boo!

I've ordered it plus an armband "zencessory" for the gym. Will let you know how it is once I've got it.

I have been a proud owner of a zen touch 20gb for a couple years now, creative do make damn good players without any of that drm crap

DRM is in the music files not in the players themselves, Creative players are fully capable of playing DRM'd WMA as offered by most music stores working on the microsoft playsforsure platform.

when are the new creative zens going to be in the shops, like argos and currys. seen them on creatives website ,..
