The good: 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).
The bad: 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.
The bottom line: 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.
