not side by side with an archos, but I have seen it side by side with an iPod Video. The iPod video has a much better viewing angle, but the zen's screen is obviously bigger.

To the person wondering what the screen resolution was, it's a VGA LCD screen at 640 x 480 resolution. For a 3.7″ screen, that's pretty darn good.

There's not much more info that I can offer that the million and 1 reviews out there don't already offer, but I can say that any video's (dvd's) that you may want to rip to the device definitly require patience, the screen can only be viewed from certain STRICT angles, and there is no proper carrying case or screen protector, otherwise no complains. I do appreciate the fact that I can delete any media from the device without having to do so from a PC, and after dropping the device accidentlly a few times (yeah I'm clumsy)I'm impressed by the fact that the device is still working perfectly (unlike other hard drive based devices, included older Creative devices). The vision is worth it's asking price, period.

I just ordered mine as well. I'll also try and post a review as soon as it arrives and I have a few days to play with it.

Everything sounds great. It would be even better with a line-in port, and have the video resolution play 640×480 and not 320×240 (pictures only support 640×480). Also, what would top it all off would be the capabilities to play some limited games.

Well I agree, but up until now there hasn't been a device with the storage the Vision has, so I was thinking of the LifeDrive as a subsitute. Now that might be chaning.

I just hope Creative doesn't mess this one up with buggy software.
