I just purchased my Creative Nomad Jukebox through EBay a few days ago for $155 including priority mail shipping. This was a great deal. The product was brand new with warranty. When I opened the box, I was very impressed. It looked like...

Pros: 6GB of storage, organized interface, USB, infrared port for future expandability.
Cons: Transferring large amounts of data might take a while.

The Creative Nomad Jukebox is a marvel. It can hold and play back 6GB of music (or about 1,200 songs) ranging from mp3’s to wav’s to wma’s and more. Also, you can use it to store general file types such as MS Word files or your backup Quicken Finance...

Pros: Hard drive based storage - extremely large capacity for a very reasonable price, Nice navigation with backlit LCD
Cons: Extremly large, over two times the size of it's nearest competitor, the PJB-100

Built around a 6 GB laptop hard drive, the size remains fairly small and the cost very reasonable. The problem with this design is that it re-introduces the problem of skipping by using a disk based storage medium. To fix this, an 8 MB buffer is used,...

Pros: Fabulous design, incredible audio quality, gigantic storage, everything you could ever want.
Cons: Crap for battery life.

I like many people have a large collection of Mp3s. I did have a Sony Walkman before this that I was very satisfied with. My biggest hate with my CD player was the constant burning of CD's. I decided to go Mp3 and went searching on Ebay. I got my...

Pros: Mega Storage
Cons: Some irritations with the software

I have wanted the Nomad Jukebox player for a very long time. However, I didn't think the $500 price, in the past, was worth it. Recently, Creative has reduced the suggested retail. I was able to find the Jukebox C player at buy.com for $259.99. I...

Pros: Largest storage for any available mp3 player. sounds great. easy interface.
Cons: Needs an easier random play feature (1 button)

I had looked at all the MP3 players on the market and came to the conclusion the the Creative Nomad Jukebox was the one. The price seems high until you consider that with other players you will need to buy extra memory cards (very expensive) to store any...

Pros: Capacity, size, look
Cons: Cost!!!!!!!

This is one of the most innovative products we have seen so far. It will be the prototype for all the new portable audio players coming out. The current 32mb and 64mb mp3 players are going to fall flat on their face. I cannot see why anyone is buying...

Pros: palm-size(light),extern hard drive,MP3 player
Cons: if u can afford it

Before u go out and buy a jukebox, check out the 6 GB MP3 player and external hard drive from Archos; unlike Creative Labs, Archos did not bow down to the recording industry, and did mot make the Archos SDMI compliant. This is a good thing. It means you...

Pros: That is one monster hard drive
Cons: Just what the heck is that infrared port for?

When I bought this I was a little leary of spending that much money for an mp3 player. What if the sound is horrible? What if the battery life is too low? What if the interface is clunky? Well I was wrong on all cases. I got a great player. The...

Pros: It hold's a lot of Mp3's. Don't have to bring Cd's to work.
Cons: Battery Life. Large & Heavy but hey it basically a small computer for music.

I've played with lot's of Mp3 & Music products. This is by far the best. I recommend using Kazaa or Mopheus to get free music (both free & downloadable at CNET) then easily importing the music you get free into your Nomad Jukebox via the bundled...

Pros: Everything about it
Cons: It takes a little while to load up once you get about 1000 songs.

The Nomad Jukebox is definitley an item you want to add to your "things to get" list. This is a great portable player for music fanatics, and people who just like listening to music. I have had mine for about a year and I still absolutely love it. It...

Pros: Gigantic memory, only the size of a CD player
Cons: 4 hour battery life (if that); slow loading time

This MP3 player by Creative, who are the makers of the popular NOMAD brand of MP3 players, have developed this next generation MP3 player. This high-capacity MP3 player is the first of a new revolution of large memory MP3 players. Gone are the days...

Pros: Great way to take nearly your entire music collection anywhere you go
Cons: Accompanying software a bit quirky, but getting better. Battery life is limited

Mobile Tunes
Unless you've been off the planet for the past several years, you are at least familiar with the music format called "MP3". Basically, it allows music to be stored in a tenth of the space it usually takes on your traditional...

Pros: Great sound, acts as a portable harddrive (although kinda slow compared to firewire)
Cons: Short battery life, can't play 32kbps mp3s (w/the storage capacity you should never need to...)

This is a great product, I don't know what else to say about, it has everything I could possible ever want (and with the upgradable os who knows, mabye more than that!). Compared to the Rio500 (of Which I own one also) i find that the NJB beats it out in...

Pros: Fabulous design, incredible audio quality, gigantic storage, everything you could ever want.
Cons: Crap for battery life.
