Creative Zen Vision W 30 GB Widescreen Multimedia Player

I chose this over the iPOD video/Zune because:

• Takes in CF cards - I can backup photographs when traveling (although I cannot view RAW files).
• Wide 4.3 inch screen. Videos on this totally rock! Crisp, clear and super!
• Good rating on Amazon.
• Closest I can get to having a backup solution without spending $350 plus.
• Plays a wide variety of video formats.
• I really need music when traveling! My discman is a little bulky to carry around.

Things to crib about (and I am being very picky):

• No accessories available on the market yet. I really need a skin to protect this thing. Spare batteries would be a big plus. None of this is currently available.
• Little big, so doesn’t fit into my pocket

All in all, I am very happy
