PLEASE! IAUDIO G3 vs CREATIVE ZEN NANO

Oct 25, 2005 12:44PM PDT

Being both of 1Gb, which one is better?
I just haven?t bee able to find a critical fault in any one of them so i?m really confused.
Please help!

All I am looking for is a pendrive/mp3 player, with fm radio, 1 gb, that can handle folders, reads id3 tags, sounds good, has different play modes (random is a must),has updateable firmware, and a few more things i don?t remember right now.
Please help me.

Creative Zen Nano

My daughter recently purchased the Zen Nano and loves it. Sound is excellent, WMA synch is a easy, and the unit seems to be of quality materials and construction. It does go through the AAA battery quickly. She always carries a spare...no big deal.

Sorry, can't compare to the IAudio.

I agree. This is a really solid player for the price.

I purchased mine from COMP USA a couple weeks ago, and I have been using it on long runs. The little trooper just chugs away for days on end....and like you said, the battery is a non-factor because of the ready availability of AAAs. I would definitely recommend this to endurance athletes; the value for money here tops the iPod Shuffle.
