Creative Zen Portable Media Centre
Comments:
Eight months after its announcement, the Creative Zen PMC is finally here. Despite its bulk, the player is solid, but it's the Microsoft Portable Media Center software that deserves most of the praise.

QuickTake:
Pros: Intuitive onscreen interface; big and colorful screen; solid battery life; impressive integration with Windows Media Player 10.0 and Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE).
Cons: Bulky design; lacks a built-in kickstand; reflective screen not ideal for outdoors use; no audio- or video-recording capabilities; works with Windows XP and Windows Media Player 10.0 only.

Creative Zen PMC
Comments:
Microsoft and Creative Labs come together to create a portable media center, but is it any good?
Review Verdict: If you don't own a PC capable of TV taping, it's hugely disappointing. Without the ability to directly record video, and no easy way to port DVDs to the PMC, you'd be better off buying a portable DVD player.

Product Reviews: Creative Zen Portable Media Center
Comments:
The Zen Portable Media Center features a built in speaker for audio playback. While audio playback is clear enough to be understood, we highly suggest using the supplied headphones for a better aural experience. Playback is smooth but as mentioned earlier
Review Verdict: While it offers reasonable performance, the player's high price had us wishing it came with a longer list of standard features.
