 This can take abuse., May 13, 2023
Don't let people fool you buy saying this product is junk.
I'm very happy with it.
I got this because i'm always on the road and at any given time i would have about 40 cds or so sitting in my car getting sat on, scratched, broke, etc.. I don't take very good care of my stuff.
I take this with me everywhere, In the winter I plow snow, so When i'm plowing long nights the long life battery works great.
In the the summer I mow lawns, I use walk-behind mowers, riders, weed whip... I'm always running around getting this this covered in grass.
I put this thing through all sorts of abuse. I've dropped my nomad around 10 times(I'm very clumsy). I've even dumped coffee on it one day in my truck, All i had to do is take the face plate
off and let it dry out. I was listening to it an hour later.
Don't let people fool you. This is a great sturdy product that is easy to use.
I only gave it a 4 because i did not like the headphones that came with it. They have good sound, but don't fit in your ear very good and the foam does not stay on the earphone

 Reconsider buying this player!! An unhappy customer!!!, May 12, 2023
Well I just passed the 3month mark with this Jukebox, and of course it stopped responding/playing. It was fun while it lasted. The sound quality was great. But that is moot now that it does not work. I wish I would have bought the extended warranty. Dont bother with Creative's online support. Have not received any help from them yet! I guess it goes without saying, you get what you pay for. I just wish I would have bought an Apple. Maybe it would have lasted longer!!

 Great Item If You Have a Brain..., May 10, 2023
When one reads the reviews on this site, one needs to take into account what else might be going on behind the scenes that affects one's experience with the product. Never has this been so true as in the case of the Creative Nomad.
I bought mine almost three months ago and have had ZERO problems. The hard drive has never frozen or crashed. I bought Sony earbuds to use with it and it sounds great. I use my car kit from an old cd player to play it in the tape deck and it's perfect for my commute. I have never dropped it or handled it roughly. I always keep it in the case.
I have used it while walking or lifting weights at the gym and it is too bulky to work that well for this. I recommend a flashcard-based player for working out. Furthermore, if you are a runner, all of the joistling will hurt the hard drive, if not make it skip. Would you go running with your laptop strapped on you? I would imagine not! Hard drive players aren't meant for that kind of use.
The only complaints I have are the lack of a line-in jack, the size, and the battery life. I have to charge mine once every two days after 3-4 hours of use. I do have the EAX on, scroll around a lot on the songs, and have the volume up, so it stands to reason the battery is getting drained quicker.
I fully reccommend this mp3 player to the person who knows that it isn't indestructable and has common sense as far as to how it should be handled. Ipod isn't the be-all end-all of mp3 players and Creative shows that in this product.

I-Pod Killer, May 9, 2023
I got mine for christmas of 04 and have loved it since. I have about 2500 songs on mine NOW and i have seen no problems,skipping,slow-downs or anything not working correctly. Its very easy to navigate from menu to menu. The sound quality is top notch and it even plays big high quality .WAV files. The battery life is very long i have played it for hours on end and the battery meter didnt even drop a single bar. and for 200$ it is the one u should buy. Creative Labs rock!
