The creative stable of products are ghastly, they're slow as fk unless you're fortunate enuff to be USB2'd up, as i don't think they have firewire ports and the interfaces suck baby rhinocerous's.
The Archos AV340 is actually pretty nice as a portable dvd, we had one in the office for a month or so and the playback quality is really good, but i wouldn't want to use it as a replacement for my iPod, its like a brick. It is smaller than that fucking obscene creative thing with blue battery covers on the ends tho.
The guy sat next to me on the train the other day was listening to his AV340 but i could tell he wanted to swap me tho, and the interface on that thing is utter cowdung, three little ghy0r buttons, it takes an age to do anything, and the ipod is still the only portable u can navigate and control with one hand, if that's important to you.
Its so cool infact that i can navigate and turn the vol up and down when its in my pocket and my hand isn't, coz the controls are heat sensitive like a laptop pad, altho people look at me funny sometimes coz it looks like i'm stroking my front area...
