Summary: Quality at a price.
Review: It all depends on what you're looking for. I personally did not need a price limit this time, so I went all out. I got the Nomad II and was fairly impressed with it. It has rechargable batteries... not something that many mp3 players have. It also has an upgradable firmware. However, the headphones really suck. Really. They tug at your hair and if you plug it into anything else but the mp3 player (like a laptop, like i did) it gives you a small shock in the ears. Not very safe. The sound is terrible through them as well.
I heard people complain about the remote alot. Furthermore, you might have to buy a smart media card to expaned from 64megs. Therefore, unless you don't mind spending 300 dollars on this fine piece of machine (well worth it), then find something cheaper and a little less in quality.

Summary: Best on the market to date
Review: Having spent a considerable amount of time looking for the best portable MP3 player this is definitely the one. I have purchased several other brands and ended up giving them to other family members so I could find the best for myself. My only complaints are trivial: the supplied case is flimsy and doesn't have a belt clip and the earphones are good, but I prefer sportclip earphones since I run a lot. I have also had excellent customer service from Creative. When my package didn't contain the MP3 content disk, they quickly and easily sent me one. No doubt this is the best MP3 player on the market to date.

Summary: Great !!
Review: I bought this cool little gizmo in Asia. So I have different spec with you guys. First I've got digital 32 FM Presets, Headphone like NOMAD II (Sounds great!), WIRED remote. This NOMAD is very cool, and great. It can stored around 40-songs (.wma), and still sounds great. It worth to spend money on this thing.

Summary: Nothing better on the market that's affordable.
Review: Over the course of about 3 weeks, I purchased and returned a total of 4 different MP3 players in serach for one that was well made, durable, affordable, and attractive/usable. I ended up paying a little bit more than I had intended to for the Nomad II MG, but it was worth every penny and I won't look back. The USB connection truly is wicked fast. Only draw back is that for myself, a student who downloads music on campus on my laptop, I cannot dump it into my player until I get home at night. But other than that, the rechargeable battery is great and the earphones are well made. Trust me on this one, if you're going to spend the money, buy this product. Nothing else comes close.

Summary: Great player, but somethings missing. Oh yeah, a remote.
Review: This player is great. I have had no luck with other players. My Rio 500 broke after I shoveled snow outside with it. My HipZip was so loud loading and playing songs, i almost threw it against a wall. This player delivers great sound and great features, but the design leaves a bit to be desired. I have had it for 3 months without any major damage aside from a scratch or two on the case. The only small problem is that the buttons are hard to access and when in the "leather" case, is impossible to use. WE NEED A REMOTE! But all in all this is a great product and it will utterly satisfy all your needs. PS: Can anyone post a review with an address for a site that sells the hard-to-find remote of legends?

Summary: Almost Perfect
Review: When I bought this mp3 player, I thought it was going to be small. When I recieved it I found out how small they really meant. This player really deserves the title MG. Transferring songs between the computer and the player was really easy. I convert all my files to .wma so I can fit more songs on the player, around 30-35 with the standard 64 megs internal memory. Each song takes only about 10 seconds or less to transfer. Some great features are the docking station for transferring songs and the fact that you can recharge the batteries saving a few dollars here and there. Overall, the performance was great and the FM radio helped a bit when I got tired of listening to my .wma files. Keep in mind that I use my behind the head headphones because the folding headphones really destroy the sound of the player. With regular headphones, you shouldn't be able to tell the difference from your CD player except if the file your playing isnt spectacular. I gave this mp3 player 4 stars because it lacks the wired remote that a lot of people have been talking about. By four stars I really mean like 4.9 but the wired remote I think is really almost a neccesity that it lacks. The special jack is there but I cannot find anywhere to purchase it. It would be great to be able to lock the player in your pocket (lock as in the buttons are disabled)and control everything through the remote.

Summary: Where's the Wired Remote?!?!
Review: Everything about this player is perfect. The specs speak for themselves. It has voice recording (perfect for recording lectures or business conferences) and then uploading to coworkers/classmates. It comes with 64MB built in memory with an extra slot for even more memory. It even comes with docking port and rechargeable batteries. It has everything an avid music listener meets "Bill Nye the Science Guy" could want. These accessories are usually stuff that comes with a CD player or a Mini-Disc player. Finally, MP3 players get the accessories that other portable audio devices get. However, there's one thing missing that's been really inconveniencing me. I don't know about the other Nomad II MG users, but the lack of a wired remote is its Achilles Heel. Even though they say it's an "optional accessory," it is nowhere to be found. You can't purchase it anywhere. They[Creative] says it's still in development but you won't be able to switch between radio and mp3s or switch songs without it. It's been really a hassle to reach in and change stations and/or songs especially on the New York City subways. It's just a minor accessory that could've make a world of a difference.
