Accessories? Do the accessories (car adapter, USB, etc) for vision zen m work for vision zen w? Are there any screen covers or skins available for vision zen w?

Those skins are okay, but would be better if there were some sort of hard flap to cover the screen. Those are hardly screen protectors. They don't protect against much, and make the screen look misty. Put this thing in your pocket and the "screen cover" peels off.

There is a skin available for the Zen Vision W - from Creative here. http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=213&subcategory;=217&product;=15794 Screen protectors? Here. http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=213&subcategory;=217&product;=15741

Have no idea. Am finding the Zen Touch 2 very undependable and difficult to operate. Should have never purchased it. Sorry Larry.

I went to the Creative Zen website about this. I have not received my 8G Zen yet but have always owned Zens and I like them and the software that comes with them. Their website has some solutions to this issue so you might want to check out that discussion board. Hope that helps.

Hi Darlene...sorry it's taken so long for someone to respond to your post! Anyway, I'm the proud owner of a Creative Zen V Plus, and I can honestly tell you that YES, the little bugger playes videos/movies. The player comes with a handful of Creative Zen commercials installed, including a really cute one with a panda! However...the size of the video displayed is REALLY small....literally the size of a postage stamp, maybe smaller than that. Do realize that a Zen V Plus is only slightly larger than Apple's iPod Shuffle, which is one of the smallest players around. If you want to rip DVD's to play on this thing, that I don't know about. I've been able to upload a "home movie" video that I made myself, and Creative has a ZenCast web site that has a bunch of FREE video downloads. If you are wanting to buy a player primarily to play videos, look elsewhere. The Microsoft Zune does a fantastic job with video for a pocket size player. Other than video display, the Zen V Plus is a great little device.

I would suggest this one. The Vision M is a lot bigger. I didnt think it was by the measurements until I saw one at Best Buy and the thing is huge. Bigger than a 30gig iPod

Don't write off the Zune yet. I've had Zen Micro Photos and one terrible characteristic is that the screen is unreadable outdoors. I'm not sure if this is true of the ZVM but some sites I've seen suggest it is. Here are the areas where the Zune beats the Zen: - more scratch resistent and resilient (Zune has a rubberized coating which helps protect it from scratches and drops) - bigger screen - if you do use it for videos the Zune display is the biggest and best - RDS support - if you use the radio you may get station and track ID info - seemingly slightly better battery life, thinner, and lighter (although a bit longer). The Zune is a bit rough around the edges, but it will only get better with new firmware. Microsoft started the project in January, so its still early days. There may be some innovative applications yet of the wifi, and there are rumors of games to come - the Zune has a pretty powerful CPU and does come from the XBox division. Pre-Zune I would say the ZVM was definitely the device to get but the Zune is definitely a contender.

I used two things. First, I used a DynoJet visor (http://www.amazon.com/Dynojet-Research-Power-Vision-Visor/dp/B00HXJH8J2/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid;=1396971697&sr;=8-10&keyword;s=dynojet+power+vision) so that I could easily attach and detach the Powervision. Then I used the Akron handlebar mount. I have no problems with either item. I got them both from Amazon.

My Android phone (Nexus4, KitKat) wasn't able to see it at all, regardless of the app on both my 2009 Mazda6 and 2006 VW Passat. Their support ignored me as well. Wasted money for me :(

Thanks for the feedback. I've found that I can use other USB cables on other PC's even if they don't have the Creative Centrale software installed, so that's the good news. The Ac adaptors with the same kind of USB connector have not worked. So looks like I need to buy the zen Ac adaptor. It should at least allow me to listen and charge at the same time <grin>

The original Zen Vision is superior to the Zen Vision W 30GB. The materials used for the W construction are of lesser quality, it is much larger (this is still a portable unit, Creative), and there is NO FM RECORDING (attention Sirius and XM users, fans of sports interviews, NPR listeners, etc...)... Music playback on both are the same. If you require massive storage, go with the 60GB W. If capacity isn't an issue, search out the original Zen Vision. It gives more options for music.

Hi, I have a Zen V and I use reading glasses. I had no trouble making out the screen w/o my glasses. (I have had trouble reading it outdoors, though) To set a book mark, press and HOLD DOWN the lower right hand spot with the backward arrow. A menu will poo up, the second option down is 'Set Bookmark. Use the joystick to highlight this option and press down on the joystick to go to the 10 bookmarks. Highlight which of the ones you want to use and press down on the joystick to set the bookmark. HTH

Vladimir, if you have an eye fi card it works just fine. I don't use an eye fi card myself, but a friend bought the adapter for his system and it works great with his eye fi cards.

I too have Windows Vista and am anxious to find out which- if any players are compatible with it. I have about decided on a Creative Zen V or plus and found one at SecureMart.com for $81.00. I hope someone can answer this for us. Ok- I kept searching and I think I will go with YES! Based on......the Vista Compatible site they listed the Creative M something or other that has 30 and 60 Gb for $299.00. I looked at the requirements and they are exactly the same as the Zen V plus. Does this make sense to anyone but me?

Daniel, which adapter specifically?Also, does the EyeFi completely fit inside the adapter or does some of it stick out? If it sticks out, how much and was that a problem closing the door that houses the CF card?
