depends a lot on personal choice. apple ipod has the flaunt value whereas creative stone plus has great features.
 
I am not a showoff person and features are more important for me. Moreover i want something which i can clip on my tshirt etc for my morning walks / jogging
 
Is the sound quality of creative zen good. I currently have sony ericsson w800i and use it with my EP-630 and i like it. I know we cannot compare a mp3 player and a phone but still.
 
+1 for Sansa clip ... although the navigation for both sansa and Create Zen Stone plus suck, but Sansa Clip has better features - it is like a USB stick, so doesn't need a wire plugin, and looks are better than Zenstone as well. I have personally tried both (gifted the SANSA to my sis), so can tell you that I would prefer a SANSA for myself as well :)

Edit: The creative Zenstone Plus does have the clip, I own one so I know :) Its not on the body though, it attaches itself to the cover.

Even am in a same situation (need an mp3 player to use during my cardio workout). But confusion is between Zen stone plus and Sansa Clip.

From what i researched Sansa clip have better interface than the stone. Can any one tell about this.
 
As I said, interface for both is crappy. Maybe I don't have proper ID3 tags, but browsing on the Zenstone is certainly PITA. Sansa is a little better in this regard. Sound quality - I'll leave that to the audiophiles, I can't make out any difference. Definitely better than the older iPods though :). Haven't listened to the new ones, so can't say.

However, Sansa doesn't have a clip and Creative does :P. Sansa provides a string to hang the player in your neck though :P

I have bought both players and used them, and would suggest you go for SANSA. It also has the expandable memory (MICRO SD I think) option, and price for both are the same.

Hope that helps,

So finally it seems that ipod shuffle has been sidelined. So guys please suggest which to buy. Clip is Must

Sansa 2GB or Creative Zen stone plus 2GB ??

what are the ir prices and will they give output when clubbed with creative ep-630
 
Prices are identical - I purchased both for 2750 bucks in Mumbai - Sansa from Alpha and Zenstone from Mahavir on Lamington Road ... and yes they take standard 3.5 mm earphones if that is what you are worried about :P
 
I would recommend Transcend T.Sonic series (610 or 615). It was my first player and worked without problems for more than a year till I lost it a month back. After that I purchased Sans Express 2gb and been a disappointed user.

I suggest Transcend for its features (A-B repeat, good battery life, intuitive interface and lots of accessories). You can have a 2 gb for less than 2k and with 1 year warranty.
 
Bought a sansa clip 2Gb for 2k. Looks neat, will post my experience after using it for a while.
 
Black :) Man this is so tiny i didn't expect it to be of the same size as shuffle and zen stone. The UI is pretty good actually. Sounds better than the T-Sonic 610. 2k for this is a really good price :D. Better product over the Zen stone easily :D

Edit: It looks better than how its shown in sandisk website :lol: , will post the pictures later :P
