Not much bigger than a pair of earbuds!

Another great feature is a Direct CD Recording function that allows you to record songs directly from a CD player or other audio source without using a PC as an intermediary. You no longer need to burn CDs to your PC then download to your MP3 player. Just connect an audio device directly to your Zen V Plus, and record your favorite CDs, records, beats and more, direct from the source. Meanwhile, automatic track detection separates each song for you--a handy feature when you're converting analog (records and cassette tapes) to digital. If organization is a high priority, the Zen V Plus's Personal Organizer will help you stay connected and in-sync with your Microsoft Outlook information. Just connect the Zen V Plus to your PC, sync your Outlook information, and you'll be ready to carry around your contacts, calendar, and to-do lists right in your pocket. Plus, the Zen V Plus uses a handy built-in microphone to double as a voice recorder, so you can capture notes, record lectures, and more.

 Straight Forward & Great Flash Player September 5, 2008
Catskill (Catskills, NY)
Great sounding and easy to use flash player. Easy to manage music files and to access the tunes you want in various ways. Battery life could use some improvement but is not bad. Charged quickly from computer and even faster with optional ac charger. Handy controls...like it much better than the Sansa E250 I had before it. I would buy another.
 waste of money August 23, 2008
Robin Lauezzari (New Jersey USA)
I wasted good money on two of these devices. One for me and one for my wife. Within two months both have died. I'll save you the long story other than to say I am fairly technically competent and have tried all the usual time consuming diagnostics to no avail.
As previous reviews note, the Creative Customer Service is non existent. I have owned Creative products for years and support them because they do not force me into a closed convention like Apple or Microsoft but I cannot ignore such fundamental product quality flaws and deplorable service levels so buyer beware.
I will no longer buy a Creative product.
By the way Amazon - why cant we give zero stars? That's what this product really deserves
 Thumbs UP August 18, 2008
amanuensis (Oceanside, CA USA)
I bought this for my husband for father's day and he is not very tech-savvy and he LOVES it. He mostly downloads podcasts and audiobooks, some music. He wears it constantly. We've had it for 2 months so far no problems. He doesn't find it difficult to navigate and that is saying something.
ZEN Looks Good, But Is Bad! August 17, 2008
Marshall G. Issen (Northern NY)
This unit looked good, had great looking and easy to use software, but there is one biggggg problem:
The device continously wanted to "re-build" the library structure and regularly locked up on me. The reset hole is so small, a regular paper clip would not fit in. I had to use a straight pin, but I think that after a few resets, the pin did sme damage to the button.
I returned it to Amazon and am awaiting a credit on my account.
Avoid this MP3 player! July 30, 2008
R. W. Fermier (Illinois, USA)
I have had this mp3 player for almost 1 year and it has been nothing but trouble. If you buy the Creative Zen V plus make sure you carry a paperclip with you at all times. It is unreliable and locks-up constantly. The only way to regain control is to use the paperclip to "re-set" the player. If you are lucky, the player will respond by re-building its library. This will take some time depending on how many songs you have on the device. If you are unlucky, you will constantly have to re-format the player which erases everything you loaded onto the player. Creative realizes that their MP3 player is unreliable because they offer a downloadable recovery tool to put on your computer to help you fix the Zen. It is helpful, but only if you can gain control of the device after it has locked up. Emails to Creative have resulted in automated form letters telling me how to re-set or re-format the device. These are pretty useless when the player is frozen and doesn't respond.
In short, the Creative ZEN V plus looks cool but based on its unreliable performance I recommend that you avoid it and my some other MP3 player. It just isn't worth the greif and hassle.
