Don’t know what all the negative reviews are about. I’ve had my Nomad mp3 player for five years now, and it’s NEVER quit on me. I’ve never had a problem with it, period.
I love the fact that I can plug it into my computer and transfer song files, create playlists, and fix it up just for my use. Since it’s got a huge memory, I use it as a backup for the songs on my computer’s hard drive, just in case the computer conks, which it has! Got a new computer, and since I had all my songs on the Nomad, I just did a quick transfer, and voila!
I wouldn’t give up my Nomad for an Ipod ever.

I’ve had a couple of nomads and they’ve all died
on me. The last one was the NX. It only lasted
a couple of days and croaked.
When i got this mp3 I thought i was getting a great substitute for an I pod because I pods are kind of expensive. Also I wanted to get an mp3 I would have for at least 2 years (that was cut short). When I was riding my bike 8/20/05 (3 months after i bought it) the mp3 all of a sudden stoped working. When the battery gets low a screen pops up that says that it has a low battery. That is what I thought happend but, if the screen popped up the player wouldn’t have shut off. About 3 hours later I brought the mp3 home to see what went wrong. When i turned it on the screen fizzled out. Well tech support said to put a paperclip in the reset button. After putting the paper clip in the reset button 10 times the mp3 would not return to normal. So I took it as a loss and now I am getting an I pod. DON’T GET THIS MP3 YOU WILL HAVE IT FOR 3 OR 4 MONTHS AT BEST.
I bought one in September 2003, it worked fine for a while, then I had to throw it away. It froze, and there was no way to bring it back to life, couldn’t use it even as a storage device. It’s heavy, the buttons are placed in awkward places and the menu is really hard to read. The aluminium face plate also breaks loose easily. The software can be a bit cumbersome. I wouldn’t buy one again. And I hate to say that i bought an G4 iPod 20GB, and it works perfectly, the firmware is easy to use and the device is light and easy to operate. I am happy with mu iPod.
I bought a refurbished one of these off of eBay directly from Creative Labs. It only had a 30 day warranty, so once it ran out, I took out the 20GB hard drive that came with it and put in a 40GB one. I also got a second LiIon battery for it for under $20 on ebay.
The player does what it’s supposed to do — play back MP3 files in high fidelity sound. The Zen NX has a nice headphone amp and drives studio-style headphones without problem. The EAX DSP settings do a nice job with EQ’ing sound and also normalizing volume when you have it on shuffle. It also has virtually gapless playback — this is, for me, a must. The included software is actually halfway decent. I use Red Chair Software’s Notmad Explorer — far better.
Complaints: no included car adapter, job dial feels a bit flimsy, no firmware support for Audible files (although you can get around it — do a search on http://www.nomadness.net), making playlists without the computer is bothersome. The included earbuds are low-fi, get a set of Koss PortaPros or something similar.
Now, this being said, this player is good enough that the complaints are not enough to drop the rating below 4 stars. YMMV.
