    Good Points: Good quality, Storage Capacity, Sound Quality.

    Bad Points: Lack of features for random/sort.

    General comments: After reading numerous other things on the Nomad Jukebox portable MP3 player from Creative, I have to put in my two cents. I have the 6 gig version and I love it! Excellent sound quality and lightweight all things considered. Someone has said that they are made fragile and I have to say I have dropped mine about 5 times so far, once on concrete and once off my entertainment center and both caused the batteries to come flying out. Still works like a charm over a year later. Makes me wonder what someone has to do to break one of these. I bought this product because of the Creative name and the storage capacity and I wasn't disappointed on either point. Creative is known for excellent sound quality and they haven't missed a beat with this one. I'm still downloading songs onto my player and only about half way through the drive, time for 20 gigs!

    I spent a lot of time looking at MP3 players before deciding on the Creative Jukebox 20GB, and would recommend anyone else who is considering it thinks about what they are looking for? Are you looking for a sleek and shiny MP3 player to show off to your friends, and to listen to a few tracks on your way to work ? If so, the Creative Jukebox isn't for you. If, on the other hand, you are looking for the ability to carry your entire CD collection (up to 500 albums, so I'm told) in the palm of ...

    Although this Nomad portable MP3 player was the kiddy to begin with, i wouldn`t sugest anyone get one as Creative Jukebox's support was terrible. 2 months old and they wouldn`t replace it, wasn`t jarred or dropped. Software simply crashed and it couldn`t even be reset to defaults.

    I don't agree that the Creative Jukebox/nomad player is too bulky, it's about the same size as many other CD players but with much more to boot. The batteries do last well if you use the high powered ones and keep them in good condition. I mostly use mine in an externally powered situation such as in the car or at home anyway so it's not so much an issue for me, it comes with charger/adapters for both mains and the car. I have a 6 gig version but I think the hard disk size is now about 20 Gigs ...

    Well-known computer peripheral manufacturer CREATIVE LABS have produced the PC's equivalent of a music player. The player sounds like a very quiet laptop as its hard drive purrs away. Sound is very good, as you'd expect from the company who invented the Soundblaster range of PC audio cards. After sales support is on par with the rest of their product range, and is very good.
