Creative's cute little Zen M300 media player is a very nice alternative to the iPod Nano. It does most of what the Nano does — FM radio, MP3 playback — and adds in some useful extras.
First is video. You'll need to transcode it into SMV format, but once done you can watch movies or anything else on the tiny 1.45-inch screen. You can also use Bluetooth headphones, ditching the cable entirely. The effect of the Bluetooth radio on battery life is not mentioned on the site, but the maximum you'll get playing back just MP3s is 20 hours.
The player also works with Audible audio books, as well as WMA and WAV files, storage is on microSD cards, which means you can carry more and swap them in, and you can also record sound as well as play it back.
The M300 doesn't have a touch screen. Anyone acquainted with the Nano will probably be happy to hear that, as tiny screens don't work well for touch. Instead there are touch-sensitive buttons arrayed around the bezel.
If you don't care about iTunes playlists, like video and don't need the tiniest player, then this might be for you. It comes in red, white, black and yellow, priced at $40 (4GB), $60 (8GB) and $80 (16GG). Available now.
