Creative Zen Micro or iAudio U2 1Gb?

Aug 30, 2005 8:13AM PDT

I've been trying to decide what mp3 player to get for a while, and I've narrowed it down to these two. I'm looking for something that has a radio and has at least 1Gb. I don't want a standard hard drive player since I only want an mp3 player for putting my Cds onto rather than buying music off the web, so 20Gb would be too much. I was thinking of getting the Zen Micro 6Gb since that would be a good amount for me, but I'm worried about the problems I've heard of the weak headphone jack and the sensitive touch pad. All the reviews I've read of the U2 sound pretty good, but I don't really go jooging or to the gym so I don't specifically need a flash player for that purpose. What I don't want to do though is buy that when the 6Gb of the Micro would suit me much better.

Which player would be best for me do you think, or would another one be better?
