Is it okay to unplug the USB when it is not fully charged (like maybe 80%) and the thing shows the progress and a electric charge over it? I want to know if it is okay to do it or I have to wait for a whole charge.
PS: How long is a charge anyway, cuz my Zen looks to be full but the image "plug" doesnt come on!

I would like to put together a home theater system, but in a modular style, in other words not purchasing "A" system, but piece by piece. In theory this should be easy, but I would also like to keep a wireless rear/side speaker set up. Any suggestions on how I might be able to do that and keep the wattage for the rear/side speakers and sub-woofer to a nice level? It is OK for me to wire the front three speakers, but the sub-woofer and the satellite speakers I would like to be wireless, or as wireless as I can get them; I understand I will have to connect the speaker/sub-woofer to a power source and receiving device. I would also like to make it upgradable if possible, in other words make a base 5.1 system and after I recover from that investment, purchase another speaker/signal receiver system to make it a 6.1 and then up to a 7.1 as I can.

Now I can find wireless speaker systems, but the ones that I have found have all come in two's with a sub-woofer and that posses several problems. First is the extra cost for sub-woofers that I do not want and they do not appear to be able to be set up with a home theater system to take the different channels of a 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 receiver. Plus the watts that most of them put out are just a joke, unless you get into the thousands and if I had that much I would not be here asking these questions, I would hire someone to do it for me lol.

Now ideally I would like to purchase one receiver, one transmitter (that would transmit the; up to, 5 remote signals{really 4.1, the sub-woofer is in that}) and two signal-receivers that I could have the option to purchase speakers for at that time if I could afford them or use speakers that I already have until I could afford good one,... if that is impossible I would like to be able to purchase just the two speaker/signal-receiver with a sub-woofer signal-reciever setup with the ability to expand as I could afford more speaker/signal-receiver setups.

Next best idea would be to be able to purchase one receiver and one transmitter for each speaker or sub woofer/signal-receiver setup that I needed at the time and be able to upgrade it as I went along.

Is that possible at all, while still keeping the watts to a nice level? I would like at least a 1000 system, more if I can get it, and of course if it is, how?

it's a xmas present. I charged it on my desktop PC's usb port got to about 50% after 3 hours. I left it off the usb until the next day, the battery seemed to have dropped down to 25% (redish color). Then i connected it onto my pc again, put music on it (like 70 songs) then turned it off to let it charge. The battery with the lightning bolt appeared and i let it sit untouched for almost 4 additional hours. Afterwards it was still only at half charge, when its supposed to be at 80% after 1.5 hours... I just bought an adapter for it, and am letting it charge, been on charge for about 40 minutes. But i'm scared that after the next 4 hours it will still be at 50% battery. Is it deffective if so? has this happened to anyone else at all?

I want to ask, is it okay to directly unplug (I mean just directly taking out the USB from the computer) the USB from the computer after I finished putting songs/videos in the Hard Drive or is there a specific procedure, because I cant find anything in the Manual. Also, when the Zen M is connected to teh computer, does it recharge automatically?

When I plug in the XBOX to the Video2 section the color on the screen is black and white. I also tried the DVD Player to make sure it wasn't just the XBOX, but that was black and white too.
