The Zen Vision W has been out for nearly two months now and has received praise from a numerous reviews already. The latest comes from the French site GenerationMP3.com. Words can't really describe how georgeous that 4.3" Widescreen display (especially since it's not in english!). Thankfully, they've provided an excellent video showing the ZVW's beautiful screen and interface
Interestingly, GenMP3 listed the price as a negative. I'm not sure how much it's selling for in Europe, but here in N. America it's one of the best values for a PMP at just $299. LINK

Oct 17 (2006) 11:02AM | The price listed on generation mp3's web site is 399 euros for the W....given the dollar/euro exchange rate last I checked it'd be well over $400....a little pricey! |

Oct 17 (2006) 12:59PM ![]() | haha It's a pirated version of Munich I believe and had the "F" word in the filename. They could have at least changed the filename for both the reasons I just said... |

Oct 17 (2006) 07:17PM | vista will support it as its mtp built in. one more thing, for a full size pmp this should have a 16.7 million color display if creative wants this to be good. most full pmp's have 63 times more the color. but ehh i guess its acceptable. kinda. good thing it looks like the screens realy glossy. |

Oct 17 (2006) 08:48PM | Glad to see the ZVW comes with a charger, but I wonder if Creative is going to do the same thing they did with the ZVM. Start off the players with chargers, then discontinue selling chargers with the player after about 6 months. |

Oct 18 (2006) 12:38AM ![]() | I know Kroo had a nice looking case with a flap that doubled as a stand for the ZV so maybe we'll see one for the ZVW too. [ edited Oct 18 (2006) 12:40AM ] |

Oct 18 (2006) 07:50AM | So here in Germany the best price for the Zen Vision:W 30 GB is: 365€ (ruffly 456$) so more expensive as in the US but that's totally normal. |

Oct 18 (2006) 04:39PM | Wait, first, they said the video quality is good, then they say that it not having 16 million colors is bad? What's it matter if the video quality is good? |
| ssjmichael
Oct 18 (2006) 05:55PM ![]() | I think they sort of feel compelled to comment on the 262k colors because the competition has more. As proven with the AV500 (262k) and Cowon A2 (16 million) the amount of colors a player has isn't always the whole story. |
