New mp3 Player

[NikolaeVarius]

I'm looking to buy a new Mp3 player in the sub 300 dollar range. I've had 2 Ipods which both died, so I'm looking for a change, that and the entire popularity is kind of getting on my nerves ( It just is. Don't ask)

I've researched the Creative Vision : M 60 Gb and it looks like it has the features I'm looking for at a good price. What does Anandtech think about it? And what about compared to the Ipod?

I've constantly heard positive reviews about it. Some people have a rough time with the touch pad though.

Anyone have the Creative M and can they make a review?
