Rating: - MuVo is EASY!
It actually a bit startling to find out how easy this little thing is... We use it just during flights and the battery lasts forever (a minimum 15 hours but possibly longer...). Sound is clear and crisp, bass is sufficient, and the LCD control is very intuitive.
The set-up on the computer take less than 5 minutes even for a computer idiot like me, the fact that it is it's own USB simplify thing to no end. For loading and rearranging files or songs you just need to know how to drag items with your mouse - no kidding - that's it!
Five left thumbs up!!!
Rating: - creative scores again!
this is my second creative mp3. my first (the zen nano plus) lasted over 2 years through rain, sweat, dirt (trail running). i searched high and low to see if there was anything better for running and did not find it. the flash memory is perfect for the jarring it takes. it has an optional belt clip (i hate the arm thingy). it's the smallest thing out there that's not an i-something. i got the 2gb this time. the technology has improved since my last purchase and while it won't shuffle between folders, each folder will now hold 500 songs. the headphones still suck and are obviously not made for runners so i'm using some from sony that have more comfortable earbuds. i love that i just pull it apart & it is it's own usb to my computer. so easy. no wires. also, i love the fact that it uses 1 AAA battery. no recharger necessary. one battery lasts a long time even for 5-6 hour training runs. it's a great product and a huge value for the money.

Got the MuVo in. Quick delivery. Sounds great. Would definitely do business again.
Rating: - My first step into the even more portable realm
Having decided to go to Japan without my vast library of CDs in their original form--I'm burning them on DVD+Rs and will take them that way--I figured a more portable form of music player would be more efficient for a crowded country. While riding on the Yamanote Line in Tokyo, I was struck by the sight of teenagers carrying around their portable MP3 players aboard the train and found myself grossly inefficient and past date with my CD player.
It was with this state of mind that I finally decided to join the even more portable realm with the Creative Muvo. Its relative smallness, slightly larger than a pocket lighter, fitting in my jeans pocket or polo shirt pocket, boggles me. Its 2G capability was something I was willing to settle for, as given my collection, 512 songs would be scarcely sufficient.
There is indeed a shuffle option, and with its no-repeat dynamic, it's like walking around with your own portable radio station. One can fill up the player with random songs from the PC. That I may experiment with in the future, though given my collection of oddities, that may prove disastrous. I filled it with only a fraction of the songs on my PC, which doesn't take an exhaustive amount of time, and I observe it does play the songs alphabetically in order of file name. But it does read foreign characters, as I have some Japanese pop songs on there, so it is smart.
It goes down to a third of its size when detaching it for plugging into the PC for downloading, so quite a technological marvel there. For the price I paid for it, a worthy investment.
