it may be a few months, or it may come out before the holidays. if other creative products are available, it'll come.

picture quality = not the main focus of this player.

i believe creative just wanted something with a color screen. the quality in my opinion is rather poor compared to the iPod, which is worse than the Gigabeat.

duno. i guess creative just wanted to update their awesome zen micro w/colour capability to compete with the upcoming nano.(@ the time). And i guess the queality isn't that great: shouldn't compare with the giagabeat's.
Does kinda suck that it's not coming up here in canada though.

shipped to Canada. I think its a very nice player, I dont sit and look at the screen much anyway, so I dont get all hung up about screen this and that- its a music player, not a video player.
