Reviews of the Creative Zen Sleek (20GB)

CNET Review
The Good: The Creative Zen Sleek is a solid, music-only WMA device with an FM tuner; voice and FM recording; and compatibility with Outlook contacts, calendars, and tasks. Large controls and a sleek body make this solid-sounding device a nice, affordable high-capacity option. It's compatible with Audible, MP3, WMA (DRM 10/subscription), and WAV files.
The Bad: The Creative Zen Sleek lacks a color screen for viewing photos or video, and its overall design is uninspiring. In addition, the device has a messy proprietary dock-connector cabling system, and the touch pad may not be the right interface for some users.
The Bottom Line: The Creative Zen Sleek is a decent WMA alternative for those looking for a music-only high-capacity MP3 player.
