 Great, if only it worked... October 7, 2008
My second creative labs product to die on me after only limited use. I love the combination of features--I would pay 3x as much for something that worked. I am off creative products for good. Save yourself the frustration and skip this.
 Superreproductor MP3 July 26, 2008
Recomiendo este reproductor por lo pequeno de su tamano, la posibilidad de que sin un cable transfieras informacion, archivos o pistas wma y mp3 hacia y desde el a tu pc.
El software que viene con el Muvo es muy buen convertidor a mp3 y wma, en la tasa de conversion que te convenga mas para aprovechar el espacio.
Los audifonos son muy buenos de calidad y sonido impecable, he tenido en total 3 Creative MuvoTx FM porque son de tan buena calidad que aún después de usados por cinco a nueve meses son vendibles jejejeje.
Si no quieres un Ipod te recomiendo un Muvo Tx FM porque es versatil, comodo de usar con su gancho portatil y pequeno.
 good except radio August 31, 2007

Everything is good except the radio. Radio reception is very poor inside buildings. At the same place, I compared SanDisk SDMX4-2048-A70 Sansa e250 2 GB MP3 Player with microSD Expansion Slot and it had much better reception.
Ignoring this issue, I'm happy with it.
Great little MP3 player...no frills!! June 19, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have used this MP3 player extensively over the past couple of years. Works great on travel and for listening to audio books (it's Audible compatible). Good USB drive in an emergency! Can be a little tricky navigating menus, but this is to be expected for a unit this small. All-in-all, no complaints. Well made. I bought an extra battery compartment online just to change the color scheme from red to dark blue. Battery life is great. You'll want to buy a better set of earphones, but this seems to be true of all MP3 players. I bounced between giving it 5 stars and 4. But, compared to the design of other MP3 units, I decded to go for the 5. Probably 4.5 stars would be the better score. I STRONGLY suggest making certain you install the latest firmware updates from the Creative website.
Almost there! Great bang for the buck June 1, 2007

Update 2008:
Still going strong, although it crashed some times. I reinstalled the update from the website and problem went away for another two weeks or so. This went on for some time, about two months but it is stable again.
Another pro: It went through a complete cycle in the washing machine. I only found out when taking the clothes to the dryer. I put it in one of my pants pockets and let it run a couple of times in the dryer. It did SURVIVE! It still works fine, with all the features and even the backlit panel still lights up! This thing is pretty much indestructible!
The pros:
Uses AAA batteries. No charger to take with you on any trip. Good playing time.
Integrated USB adapter. No cables to take with you or get lost.
FM radio. For when you are bored with what you had uploaded.
Multiformat files player. Plays many formats (other than proprietary such as Apple).
Arm brace included. You do not have to pay extra if you want to wear it while running or exercising.
Ingenious belt holder. Also included.
Microphone included. You can leave messages or "Notes to self" to remind you of things to do.
The cons:
Within a folder, will play whatever is there by alphabetical order. Sure, you can rename all files, putting a number upfront to circumvent this, but...
Original earbuds are too big. Unless you have ears the size of Dumbo's, you might as well purchase new ones.
Software is too complex. But it is not required. Just install "driver" and use MS Media Player to manage your files.
"FF" and "RW" button takes time to get used to.
Once you install the first "update," you get the "FF" and "RW" with sound function, but you loose the FM recording capability. Do not ask why.
