Item for Sale
Creative Zen Vision M 60gb

Asking Price
$190

Item Description
Creatize Zen Vision M for sale. I love this mp3 player, but it's a bit big and there are features that I don't use that I think others may appreciate.

This is the 60gb version of the mp3 player, so it's a bit large. However, it has some pretty cool features. The mp3 player can be used as a backup drive using pictbridge and it pretty much takes any video format without the need for reencoding the video. I installed a silicone protector on the mp3 player to protect it and it's done a good job, but I took off the back protector and it ripped off the serial number sticker (I still have it with the papers). I wouldn't try to take off the front cover, it's much stronger than I thought.

I have the original box, software, manual, and cables for the mp3 player. The only cable I don't have is the cable used to hook up the mp3 player to a tv. That cable will allow you to play the videos on the mp3 player on a tv. It costs around 15 bucks I think.

I'd be open for trades also. Pictures coming soon.

This is one of the best mp3 players I have owned and is pretty much thought of as one of creatives best players. Only real problem I have, is the battery life when watching videos (all mp3 players have poor battery life for videos) and I need more space. I'm one of those people with a really large music collection. It'd be nice if it all fit in my pocket.

My Son has one, its a great player..got it over a year ago...$250. I have the old Zen Touch (20GB) and it still works great, just too hard to read for my old eyes. (Your M is much easier to read) I got a Zune 80Gb and love it. Glass screen, podcasts, vids, wireless sync, and a lot thinner then the older Creatives. They just got a 120Gb version through FCC testing, you might want to check that one out when its in stores. (I'm a music hog too...bootlegs off the net, ROIO's are awesome and legal!)

Yeah I love Creative's mp3 players. I also have the Zen V which has amazing battery life. The only problem now is that they don't have any large players out at the moment. So I'm stuck with getting a zune, which isn't that bad I guess (wireless sync does sound awesome and I really like the zune originals idea). I hope it doesn't take too long for them to get the 120gb to stores. I might just have to get one of the zen players and use the sd card as extra storage.

Or your camera via pictbridge. I'm going to test it right now using a k20d to confirm though.

Yup, it works. I don't think this was meant for on the go transferring from an slr (especially the large files from the k20d), but if you're ever in an area away from your computer (like on vacation) you could back up your mem card. I imagine smaller jpegs from a p&s would be much faster.

It took 59 images (some raw some jpeg about 500mb) 13 minutes to transfer. And here is a crappy cell phone picture of the process. No computer needed.

Cool that you can Pict it to a camera....will share that with my kid.

If you go back a day or two at Engadget, you can read and see pics of the new 120GB HD and 16GB Flash Zunes, and talk about more software upgrades. (which I have to admit have been one of the Zune's strong point, much more so then Creative. ) The Zune market place is pretty nice and I get all sorts of cool Podcasts for free as well. And the Sub card can be shared among three Zunes from what I understand. ($15 a month...since the wife has a 8Gb flash one we may check it out)

I saw that and the price leak from B&H. It's definitely on my list now.


This will be moved to ebay along with a 2gb zen V probably tomorrow since nobody seems interested.
