Pros: FM tuner, ease of use, EQ settings, great price for the features Cons: slow USB transfer rate, supplied memory is flash (not internal) making it hard to upgrade
The Nomad II made by Creative Labs, has a lot going for it. First off, its sleek, looks good, and the size sure beats that of your old CD player you used to jam in your pocket wherever you went just to hear that tune you loved. Straight out of the box...

Pros: Sound Quality... Ease of use. Cons: Headphones, Lack of internal memory.
A few months ago, emusic.com had a promotion in which they gave away a Nomad II for free, with the purchase of $50 in music. No need to say, the promotion was over much faster then emusic imagined and I was lucky enough to pick up on of the last...

Pros: Small, attractive, great features, good performance. Cons: Poor button placement, badly designed carrying case cover.
When I first started researching MP3 players, i was looking primarily at 5 things: features, design/style, size, price, ease of use/performance. I can't really imagine what else one would be looking for in an MP3 player outside of this, so i will go...

Pros: Great sound, does what it's supposed to do, stylish Cons: Headphones are garbage, pricey, should come standard with the optional remote, upgrades are expensive
The North American version of this product does not come with a remote. The European version one does. Creative Labs now offers a new remote that surpasses the capabilities of the one that comes with the Europe version of this product. The version...

Pros: Small, Efficient, Quality sound, Easy to use, stylish! Cons: Cant load many songs,Not equipped with headphones, No rechargable bat.,loose clip belt
I was looking for a basic player to take to the rec center, and that's exactly what I got.
Right out of the box I was loading songs with no problem. The software was very intuitive - though I did have to refer to the online manual to figure...

Pros: Size, Features, Flexible Memory Configurations Cons: Small button size on some controls
The Nomad II perfectly fit my portable digital entertainment requirements when my Sports Walkman gave in after 6 years of faithful use. I've used it frequently during the last month and carry it mostly for running, rollerblading, and trips to the gym....

Pros: Great sound and features Cons: No on-board memory
I mulled over making this purchase for months and now that I've done it, received it and used for over 6 months I have to say that I am perfectly satisfied.
Let me take a moment to dispel some of the myths about this product (stated by other...

Pros: Stylish, Easily Expandable, High Quality Sound, Good Battery Life Cons: Buttons can be hit mistakenly, headphones stink, creative drivers are notorius
The Nomad II MG comes with 64MB of onboard memory. There is also a SmartMedia memory slot, so you can put those cards in there in order to get more memory. Currently, 128 MB SmartMedia cards are available for around $40 (I suggest www.newegg.com).

Pros: Memory expandable to 128 MB Cons: Horrid, non-ergonomic design
I purchased this product a few days ago, and am returning it. I chose the Nomad II MG over the Nomad II for the ability to expand to 128 MB of memory (the Nomad II has no expansion slot). However, the poor ergonomic design makes it relatively unusable...

Pros: Great Little Device Cons: CDAC doesn't work after you install something else
The Nomad II is excellent as a hardware device but the reliability of the software leaves much to be desired. Before I turn this Epinion into a straight rant about how all software moguls are evil, let me give some vital statistics about this...

Pros: Good Sound, Great Headphones Cons: Weak Battery Life and Weak FM Performance
Purchased the product at two places. First the bare unit (Nomad II 0MB) with no memory for $99 at www.ecost.com. The memory card (64MB Smartmedia Card) for $130 including shipping at www.buy.com. Total about $245.
Experience has been mixed....

Pros: attractive, light, usb, fm radio, headphone remote Cons: battery cover, no internal memory, bad os/controls
This is the second mp3 player I've owned (the first being the diamond rio300). Of course this one beats the old rio on pure specs, it actually isn't so great. The best parts about it are as follows: the headphone remote, the fm radio, supports...

Pros: Low battery drainage, durable, nice sound quality, 64 MBs, radio tuner! Cons: Buggy software, rechargeable battery would have been nice..
Maybe I'm just saying this cause I got a great deal on this player, but its damn good.
Its incredibly durable, the headphones have survived being in my backpack for 3 months, and the mp3 player in my pocket for 3 months. No wear and tear...

Pros: Sleek Cons: Poor naming system. Not enough characters.
The Nomad is sleek and equally as important is ever so light. The newest features on Mp3 players is FM radio. The Nomad had this function and can store up to 32-preset FM stations, thus expanding its excellent use.
The Nomad takes over from Minidisc...
