I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the Creative Labs Zen Vision:M. I haven't gotten to use it much yet but it seems great so far. The video is really crisp and the colors are vibrant. I went to Circuit City to buy it but the price buying it at the store was $299 for just the player. There is a special bundle on their website that includes the player, the power supply, and a case for $291. Pretty much a no-brainer there. I just got onto one of their computers and bought the thing online and walked over to customer service to pick it up.
I went ahead and loaded up Media Player 11 as well because it was supposed to sync up easier (don't have to install the Creative software). Man, WMP11 is sweet! I'm sure I haven't found all of the new stuff that it can do but it is obvious that a lot of the changes are to make working with MP3 players much easier. There are a couple of things I have to get used to but I doubt it will take long.
