Answer 1

Creative has really produced some great products that put apple to shame.The creative vision:m is an amazing player, people who don't know any better go with ipods.The advantage with the vision m is the following:

1 vision has a 265000 colour high definition screen while the ipod only has 65000 colours.

2. web casts can be viewed with the vision using creatives own Zencast web site

3.the vision has a built in FM radio and voice recorder, these are not available on ipods

4. ipods have had problem with thier batteries failing within 16 months

5 the creative has a battery life of 14 hours audio and 5 hours video

6. Creative has the best sound quality.This is measured in what we call signal to noise ratio.The larger the decibel the better the quality.Creative players are rated at 97 db, ipod video have 82
(you be the judge)
