Buy.com is offering a $250 rebate on the Creative Zen Portable Media Player with 20GB capacity making the effective price $200! This device is owned by Microsoft and supports only MP3, WMA, and WMV formats. It cannot play Divx formats, nor is it likely to ever be able to. It does not appear to have any capacity to display ebooks, though it can display JPEGs. Overall it's a device that few would consider, except for the fact that right now it costs less than most ipods. If anyone goes for this deal I would love to hear about your experience.
