  Creative NOMAD JukeBox 3 - Review, Specs, Prices
While plenty of competitors are biting at their heels, Creative's recently released NOMAD 3 offers 20GB of storage and may help hold their position at the top of the food chain.
The NOMAD 3 does not use the Oxford 911 bridge common in most 1394 storage devices, so, performance may not be on-par with the standard speeds.
With a hefty street price of $340, the Creative NOMAD Jukebox 3 offers a lot in terms of features, but a cumbersome interface, slow transfer speeds for both USB and SB1394, and lack of neat accessories are things to look at when considering a purchase.

 Nomad Jukebox
Creative was the second company to employ this concept in a player and the result was an unqualified success.
Creative did a very good job of allowing the user to enter this information without a keyboard, a design move that deserves notice.
The Nomad Jukebox is not a milestone player because it is the first to hold more than a gigabyte of space, that honor goes to Remote Solution's Personal Jukebox.

 G4 - Feature - Review: Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen
Creative, the creators of one of the first hard drive players, the Nomad Jukebox, is banking on a fresh look, excellent audio quality, and an impressive $299 price point (after $50 rebate).
Creative's EAX processing, which include environmental effects (such as auditorium-like sound) and time scaling, may appeal to some, but not many.
Unlike the $350 20GB Nomad Jukebox 3, the Zen lacks a variety of inputs and outputs, so you can't record external sources into MP3 or WAV.

 IGN: MuVo Slim
Creative did a solid job of packing a lot of features into a very small enclosure.
Despite the size, Creative was able to design the Slim with a removable rechargeable battery.
Creative is still the only company to offer a battery that any user can easily swap out.

 X-bit labs - Articles - Creative NOMAD Jukebox Digital Audio Player Review
Creative NOMAD Jukebox looks just like an ordinary CD player and is of nearly the same size.
The interface of Creative PlayCenter 2.0 is very simple: two clicks are more than enough to move the files from the PC to the player.
So, Creative has the chance not only to eliminate errors if there are any, but also to add some extra features and EAX effects.

The Nomad Jukebox solved this problem by having the ability to store most people's entire music collection in a package which was of the same size as a portable CD player.
Creative later released the Nomad Jukebox C. This version comes with the same Jukebox but has a difference package contents.

 M P 3 :: O R G: Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen
Creative's new player is one of the smallest high-capacity MP3 devices on the market today, measuring about the size of a deck of cards.
Unlike previous Nomad models, this software also asks for a confirmation before deleting files - a welcome addition, as the old delete function was far too easy to trigger accidentally.
Creative said even with power-devouring features like the backlight, EAX audio and shuffle-play mode turned on, it should only knock an hour or two off the expected battery life.

Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen NX 10 September 2003 03:50 PM The Nomad Jukebox Zen NX is a smaller and lighter version of Creative's Jukebox Zen MP3 player.
Creative claims that it's capable of similar battery life to itís older models.

 Creative Nomad Jukebox
Creative's announcement of its new NOMAD Jukebox is the proof that the evolution of MP3 portables has altered.
The NOMAD Jukebox has a 6GB capacity, larger than the Personal Jukebox, and weighs just under a pound (what these new units offer in capacity comes at the cost of size and weight).
Curiously, the NOMAD Jukebox is shaped like a portable CD player, in fact, we thought it was when we first saw it.

Creative's MuVo TX FM is a great option for people who want a small, lightweight, and gymworthy player with a decent feature set.
The Creative MuVo was the first device we'd seen to combine a USB memory key with an MP3 player, a design that has since been emulated by the Gateway DMP-200, the Rio Fuse, and Creative's own MuVo NX.

The new version is identical to the recently released Zen NX, except it has a larger screen with green (rather than blue) backlighting.
Creative bundles the Zen Xtra with standard earbuds, an AC adapter, a USB cable, and a durable, belt-clip-equipped fl carrying case.
And Creative's EAX menu offers a comprehensive set of DSP settings and other useful effects, such as speed control, volume normalization, and five-band equalization.

 Bitterly, Apple Settles with Creative
Apple CEO Steve Jobs said in a statement that Creative was "fortunate" to have been granted its "early" patent, implying that Creative's right to the technology was simply a matter of applying for a patent before Apple did.
But as anyone who's used an early Creative NOMAD MP3 player can attest, those devices featured UIs that were startlingly similar to what Apple later used in its iPod.
For Creative to have been awarded a patent for navigating songs in the first place is ludicrous.

 Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra 30GB
Creative decided to save some money and skimped on the manual, opting for an electronic manual on the CD.
This is rather disappointing, because although the Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra is cheap compared to other players, it still is a load of cash to pay for a portable audio player.
The Nomad Jukebox Zen NX and Nomad MuVo2 also use the same battery.

Creative has made a name for themselves in this market with the introduction of the Nomad series MP3 players.
Their Flash players were great and in my opinion, they manufactured the best flash player to date...The Nomad II MG.
Just recently, Apple introduced their players to the PC market, increasingly making them the MP3 player of choice...until now that is! Say hello to the Jukebox Zen, Creative's latest player and IPOD's main competitor.

Creative states on the website that this adapter will be made available soon.
I gave Creative's Nomad Jukebox 4 Geekheads for Quality because, while the product is superb and I have yet to have a problem, Creative really needs to solve the battery life issue.
The Nomad Jukebox gets 5 Geekheads for Geekness because of all the formats it supports and will support in the future, and the possibility of more storage to come.

I say Creative made a smart decision in hiring the Technicians they did.

The Nomad II ships with software called the Creative Digital Audio Center, which is basically a full version of MusicMatch Jukebox Deluxe 5.0 with a Creative Labs skin on it.
Likewise, while we found the Nomad II Manager software easy to navigate and use, we were left with the feeling that some options were sacrificed in the name of ease-of-use.
Creative NOMAD allows you to customize your own digital music and audio content and take it anywhere you want.

 Creative Nomad MuVo (128MB) Reviews. MP3 players Reviews by CNET.
Though the MuVo is certainly pocket-friendly, we still wish that Creative had included a belt clip or an armband, although both can be had for an extra $30.
Anyone who likes to tweak EQ and other settings is out of luck; the EQ level is preset at Creative's Rock designation--which entails a slight bass boost--all the time.
For those who wish to invest in third-party software with a different feature set and a smaller footprint than Creative PlayCenter, a company called Red Chair Software offers an alternative, called Notmad Explorer, which is free to try and costs $10 to buy.

 Lee's Creative Nomad Jukebox Help Page
I downloaded Creative Nomad Play Center 3 (February 2003) update from the Creative website (this updates the Player from version 1.x to version 3.x).
But, I could not get the Creative Nomad player to be seen by the Creative Nomad Play Center (even though the Creative Nomad Player Detector in my Windows Tasktray would tell me that it was connected).
I downloaded the Creative Nomad Jukebox drivers for Windows 2000 (also for Windows 98, etc.) and now the Creative Nomad Player sees the Nomad device (the website warns you to put in the drivers if you haven't already done so -- I thought I did, but I guess not).

 Re: Experience with your Creative Player nomad II - MP3 Players - Creative Labs
I am totally disappointed in Creative for their hardrive product.  I year and 4 months after I started using it, it is dead, gonesville, out of service.  I was not a heavy user, perhaps once or twice a week.
I've tried the FAQ's, the users suggestions, the manuals, and the on-line help but none of it was useful.  Creative's response is slow by email and really only said that my player was toast and needed repair or replacement.
