    Strength:

    No strenghts if the unit will not last 1 year

    Weakness:

    Just read the reviews...Hard drive failure..I can go on and on with many complaints fron hundreds of users..

    I was thrilled at the thought of taking my Mp3's with me, in the car, on my Home stereo, etc....Why didnt I read up on this unit !! May be because its such a great company, I thought I was safe.. Impulse buy...Just read the reviews.. After 90 days go by and the drive fails, you will get no sympathy from Creative Labs...I read of several dozen people all with the same problem..The hard drive fails with in a year !!!! I just returned my second one in 8 days, Im one of the lucky ones who had the failure within Walmarts 60 day return window..Several hundred of us are not so lucky...Read for your self....ZDnet, etc, you can hardly miss'em..Im mainly bummed because I got an irock transmitter, the thing rocked my stereo and car, most immpressive..The other thing this had the worst interface I have ever seen, like the Acer computer generic programs that were lousy.. You have to import the mp3's into a media folder, then transfer from there, it creates a double for the media center, this makes no sence and is a waste of hardrive on the pc..Ridiculous !!! I hope you read this before you buy...I would tell you what I have heard is the best, but I dont want you to think I am pushing a product...Buyer beware !!!!!

    Strength:

    Excellent: Sound,Quality,Build,Storage and can Compress Music from(64kb-320kb's). I've been using 192kb's. Very fast Ripping.

    Weakness:

    Software at first but then easy. Keep a safety pin handy to Reset this but no damage or loss of Files. I noticed that when I overcharge it I'll need to Reset this Device maybe due to Safety of this Device.

    Very excellent product. I have the 20GB model. The software took a little while to get used to but now very easy to use. This product will hold 100's of CD's and won't slow it down. Creative Labs will have a wired remote:FM Tuner,Microphone, and Controls to operate all via Remote. this Remote will be due out late May or early June for approximately $80.00 but can find it cheaper than this Price. Mine will last approximately 10 hours on the One Battery but this device will hold a Second Battery for up to 22 hours of Music enjoyment. Excellent external connections will do practically anything you ask it to do. Check out their website (creative.com). Best product I've listened to in this small package. Order the Belt Pouch for this product for around $16.00 very sturdy and will also keep it Clean. I got a steal of a deal on this after retail of $245.00 plus a $50.00 Rebate by mail now $195.00. Use (google.com)to find the best Price.Creative Labs Jukebox 3 Rebates.
