Excellent
THE GOOD
The Creative Zen Micro features an FM tuner/recorder, a voice recorder, and a PIM that syncs with Outlook. You can choose from 10 colors and easily replace the removable battery. The Zen Micro is also compatible with subscription-based online music services and has excellent sound quality.
THE BAD
The Creative Zen Micro's touch-pad navigation won't impress everyone, and the fact that it records voice and FM tuner in only WAV format is a bit of a bummer. There's also no dedicated volume control.
THE BOTTOM LINE
The colorful and versatile Creative Zen Micro will make lots of users happy.
