Summary: Great little player
Review: I bought the Creative NOMAD MuVo NX about two weeks ago and I'm very happy with it so far. It was not too much money compared to other players and the quality seems to be extremely good. All you have to do is replace the not-so-good supplied earbuds.

Let me start with how easy it is to get music onto this MP3 player. It is extremely easy. It is recognised by Windows as a removable disk drive, so it adds itself into My Computer or Windows Explorer or whatever and you can copy and paste or drag and drop music on there in a snap.

The battery life is alright, but I'm not complaining since it only takes 1xAAA battery and lasts a good 10 hours.

The size is great! The first thing that occured to me was that the actually memory bit of the player (the bit that plays the songs) is smaller than the battery clip-on!

There is also upgradeable firmware, so your player can constantly be updated for new patches and fixes. I'm downloading an update righht now.

Another key thing for me was WMA support, since it's about half the size of an MP3 (even though I keep mine encoded at 80kbps for a medium between quality and being compact).

256MB is a great amount if you're not looking at a jukebox, I've still yet to fill it. I think it can take roughly 120songs in WMA and 60 in MP3.

Get thins player! The interface is friendly and very easy to use and read. The only downside I can think of right now is the fact that you cannot fast forward tracks, although it remembers where you were in the song as you switch it off.

Summary: Be careful!
Review: This is nice and convenient unit. As you know it doubles as flash drive and makes it easier for you to move files and music from different computers. 128 MB of memory is adequate, if you looking for more then try iPod or some other hard drive based MP3 players.

However, only buy this from places that offer unconditional money back guarantee return policy. I bought one unit and it would not power up. In addition, the earphones were uneven in length. The right earphone was 3 times as long as left one making it awkward to listen to music. As I was exchanging the player I heard customer service representative saying how this is second one she had today with the same problem, it would not power up at all. I exchanged the faulty unit and got the one that works just fine but the earphones came uneven in length again. Somebody is sleeping at quality control department. So be careful and ready to exchange or return this product. It might be worth it to buy product replacement plan for this product if you decide to get one.

This is definitely useful gadget that makes life more pleasant so I will keep mine. .

Summary: Incredible MP3 Player
Review: The MuVo NX is the absolute best MP3 player I have ever had.

The ultra-small and ultra-light chassis makes it about as burdensome as a lighter. The battery case is also interchangeable giving you a choice between blue and black.

The sound quality is top-notch, not including the fact that a five bar equalizer gives you tons of options.

It is incredibly easy to load music onto it:
1) Remove flash card from battery case
2) Insert flash card into USB slot (it can be awkward without a front USB port)
3)Drag CD folders straight onto it (the MuVo NX is recognized as a external hard drive, open it through My Computer and go to your song folders, then drop onto the hard drive window)
4)Re-insert into battery case
5) Listen to music!

You can also use it as a voice recorder, or drag non-music folders onto it and transfer them to another computer as with a normal flash drive.

It comes with earbuds, but to truly enjoy it's great sound, I recommend getting some nice headphones.

All in all, this is an INCREDIBLE MP3 PLAYER.

P.S. I have only had it for about a week
P.P.S. DO NOT USE WINDOWS FORMATTING SOFTWARE (I haven't done it, however it says it in the manual in very large letters)

Summary: Very Compact, Lightweight, Easy to Use...
Review: After comparing several MP3 players in it's class I decided to go with the MUVO NX because it's perfect for working out in the gym and lightweight for running. I considered going with an I-Pod for the larger storage capabilities at first, however when
I found out that the included rechargeable battery will stop holding it's charge after a about 2 years of use it wasn't worth the money for me. The 256MB memory included in the NUVO MX stores a good amount of music so you won't run out of songs in the middle of a workout or on a 4-5 hour plane flight.

The Pro's:
- Lightweight, compact design.
- Plug and play USB connection.
- Easily drag and drop files directly onto the player.
- Good amount of storage for music.
- Decent battery life. (I suggest investing in some rechargable AAA batteries)

The Con's:
- I only have one negative comment about this product. After opening the package the earphones included were defective. One side was about 3 times a long as the other side and the sound wasn't the best. This is why i'm giving it a 4 Star rating instead of 5.

Summary: Mighty Muvo!
Review: This is a great and tiny alternative for those who think other MP3 players are too expensive, big, or complicated. As a Mac user using System 9.2, this couldn't be easier to use. Even without the battery, the tiny unit plugged in right into the USB port and came up instantly on my Mac without having to install anything; true plug & play! This also makes sharing songs with other people easy (assuming you want to risk the wrath of the RIAA, not that I'd ever do it of course). Windows users will probably have to install the enclosed software. Then it was simply drag and drop. This makes updating it so easy! This is especially useful when you just want to hear individual songs. It will hold folders of songs like if you want a whole album, but unless you preface each track with a order number (01, 02, 03, etc), it will play the folder in alphabetical order. It has a decent MP3 display for song titles (not artists). Also, the headphones are crappy but the sound is very good if you replace them. And yes, there's a slight buzz when the backlight goes on for a second, but if you don't make any adjustments while playing you'll never hear it like during a workout. Also, the single AAA battery lasts 11 hours which is also replacable, unlike iPods which you have send the whole thing back. It holds 4 hours of music in non-compressed CD quality (a minimum 128kbs), which is plently of non-repetetive music for the commuter, excersise enthusiast, or pretty much anyone. It can hold more in a more compressed format, but you'll notice the difference in sound. It includes most of the major playback selections like normal, repeat, and shuffle play for the whole player or folders. No programming feature, but that can be fixed by making a folder on you computer of songs and tranferring it to the Muvo. It also doubles as a voice recorder or for holding any small non-audio file. For the very minor problems it has, this a very simple machine that really delivers.

Summary: Terrible Company
Review: Bought this and just after a month the volume up button stopped working. Sent it back to manufacturer (Creative Labs) for repair/replacement and they refused to honor the warranty, claiming "misuse"! This is nonsense. all I did was use it while walking, jogging, etc. The buttons are cheaply made and flimsy, but their policy is even more outrageous. A total ripoff!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A waste of money unfortunately
Review: This is a very good player, it is light, skip free, ergonomic and the sound quality is excellent. Transferring songs is very easy too.

While it works, this is one of the best MP3 players around.
WHILE IT WORKS!

This player WILL STOP WORKING ANYTIME FROM A WEEK TO 6 MONTHS
This isnt a joke. It will stop working without warning, and i have a suspicion creative did it on purpose. However, instead of it resulting in higher sales it is just putting people off.

I'm sorry to have to recommend not buying it, as this could be a really wonderful player, BUT IT WILL STOP WORKING.

If you must buy it, get it from a shop where they offer a very long return policy of AT LEAST A YEAR. Also, KEEP IT AWAY FROM STATIC and MAGNETS. I think it is VERY sensitive to this.

BEWARE!!!! I HAVE BOUGHT THIS PRODUCT, AND I KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great player and drive
Review: I got this for Christmas and I use it pretty much every day to both listen to music and move files. I love it. Everything works great and it sounds pretty good too.

I do recommend the firmware upgrade because it fixes a couple of kinks, nothing major though.

I especially like the fact that it takes AAA batteries instead of rechargable. That way the rechargable battery doesn't wear out and you don't have to spend time recharging it, you just change the battery and go. Anyway, you can still buy AAA rechargables to use if you want.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Sweeto
