Speak for yourself.
I just bought a 40GB Creative Zen Xtra and $65 Creative noise-cancelling headphones for $279.99, shipped and (CA) taxed. Add +$25 for Notmad Explorer (<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.redchairsoftware.com">www.redchairsoftware.com</a><!-- w -->) = !!WINNAR!!
That's 2x better battery life, better software (Notmad), better sound (I love it when iPod users argue this one), half the price, AND to top it off, 2x the storage.
This was off a price mistake Creative had on their site not too long ago. My choice was clear.
PS: I do love iPod's built in microphone & remote though.
