Some info for those of you using larger cards..........2007-04-01

Use SD cards only. The newer SD HC cards did not seem to work for me. Also, make sure your SD card is formatted using FAT and not FAT32. I just bought a 4 GB Transcend card and it came as FAT32. The player can only read from the FAT file system so I had to format the card before using it.

I love this player! Best money I ever spent. I'll update this review if I ever figure out a way to get it to work with SD HC cards.

Best All Around MP3 Player.......2007-01-24

For playing MP3's this is the best unit I have found. Sound quality is awesome! And even though I bought this unit (I bought one for my daughter as well) 2 years ago, it continues to impress me. Yes, the user interface isn't as flashy as an ipod, but it works and the unit is rugged. I love the fact that if the battery ever goes bad I don't have to send it in for service or throw it away, I just replace a standard AAA battery, normal or rechargable. Also, I just upgraded my unit to a 4GB SD card. It works great!! Now it holds over 80 hours of music. I haven't tried an 8GB SD Card but I wouldn't be surprised if it works as well.

My favorite features are:

1. Awesome sound quality!!
2. Rugged, lightweight unit, reliable!! (never had single problem with two differnt units purchased.
3. Not locked into a built-in proprietary battery that could go bad.
4. Expandable like crazy. Now using 4GB SD card and I can have multiple cards that hold more music preloaded if I want. It takes just about 30 seconds to swap SD cards.

Only downside is small display.

Creative Muvo Sport C100.......2006-05-14

Hey I've had this mp3 player for about a year and it works great. The Creative Muvo is super tough and work great if your out running or whatever. Even though it's water resistant they don't suggest dropping it in the water, but i've dropped it in a river once and it works just fine. This player is great if you have a small music collection but if you have a bunch of songs don't get it (even though you can put a lot of songs on it it doesn't have a scroll option) If your buying for the radio option don't buy it because i've found that the radio doesn't work very well and also the volume doesn't go very high.

2G SD card works.......2006-03-06

When I bought this unit, the label said it accepts 512M card. Then I saw some customers' comments that it accepts 1G card. I just bought a 2G SD card (...) and put it in--it works like a charm. So now I have a total memory of 2.25G, good for 40 hours of music!

How many times you see things work better than they are supposed to?!

Very Good with a Major Problem for Me.......2006-01-25

I purchased this MP3/FM player to use while I run outside. What I wanted was a player that had MP3, FM and a stopwatch and was weather proof. I don't like to wear a watch on my wrist while I run. I tried a Phillips player first, but the display was unreadable in sunlight and the battery only lasted 2 1/2 hours. It had a great feature though, push a button and the time on the stopwatch was announced.

After reading the reviews here and elsewhere, it looked like the C100 was going to be just right for me. And I have to agree with just about everything I've read. Good build quality, no problems with the SD cards I've used, sound quality is good, FM reception is good and no need to load the software.
The head phones are OK. Not real comfortable for me but good sound.

However there is one thing that is a Major Problem; at least for me. You can't control the MP3 player or the change the FM station while the stopwatch is running. Can't be done. If you are exercising and you come to a song you don't want to listen to, you have to stop the stopwatch, go to the menu and select Music or FM (whatever you are listening to) and then make the change. Then you go back to menu and select Stopwatch and restart the time. Not an easy thing to do with the player strapped to you arm. And now your time is off. I checked with Creative and they have no plans for a fix.

Now I know this isn't a problem for a lot of people (since no one mentioned it in any of the reviews I read) but for me it's enough to rate this otherwise five star player four stars.

Good when it works........2007-01-12

The buttons stopped working on mine, too, then started again. Then, files started getting corrupted so the player would freeze and I'd have to remove the battery to reboot it. I'd replace the files and different ones would cause the problem the next time. I will be buying a different mp3 player.

Beware of Broken Buttons.......2005-06-07

This is a great player when it works. I love the features and sports timer. The earphones are uncomfortable but no big deal seeing how cheap replacements are. The problem is the buttons stop working. At first they seem a little difficult to push but then they just stop functioning. Two buttons went out after three weeks of use. They were the Volume down and Next Track. Returned to store for exchange and then the same thing happened again to the second unit only now its three buttons including the most important Menu button. Will need to send item in to Creative now and wait. I will not be surprised if the third one I recieve has the same problem. This issue has been brought up in the creative fourms and I have seen it reported other places on the net. If I had to do over I would not buy another one of these. Basically a little bad engineering ruined what otherwise would be a great product.

It is really a great MP3 Player.......2005-02-13

I recommend the creative muvo c100 highly.I have bought one and really like it.The sound is just great on it even in heavy traffic.You can do so much with it.

Product Description

The bi-directional wavelength division-multiplexing (BWDM) interface carries two distinct channels in different directions on a single strand of fiber.The BWDM Interface converts electrical signals to wavelengths on a single strand of fiber, and provides a manageable, cost effective solution to achieve distances up to 20km. At one end of the connection one wavelength is used to transmit (e.g., 1310nm or 1550nm), and another wavelength is used to receive (e.g., 1310nm or1550nm).Bi-directional fiber connectivity improves network scalability and serviceability and is ideal for both MAN and LAN applications where additional users must be supported on existing fiber connections. BWDM eliminates the need to install a second fiber and effectively doubles the fiber capacity on existing fiber cables. This provides a 100% improvement in fiber utilization since only a single fiber strand is required. Thus, fiber costs, installations costs, and maintenance costs all reduce the overall cost of ownership.

Perfect.......2003-08-06

That's it! perfect... works as a peferct hard drive. You can carry anywhere you want and i have never had a problem. I was thinking whether was intersting to buy a palm top to carry my files or not. However. Why do you need a palm top? Everywhere you go you can find a computer. Just carry your usb key with you and you don't need anything else. Buy it!!!!

Versatile!.......2003-08-05

Bought this item in June and it has worked flawlessly. I swap files between Windows 2000 at work and Windows ME at home. The only issue with W2K is that I have to boot the computer with the USB disk installed in the port, or it won't be recognized. But then I can take it in and out as often as needed until I reboot. So I just have to plan ahead or face a shut down and startup.
There are no issues with ME, it just works. So much more convenient than burning CD's!
One minor complaint, the attachment to the case seems a bit weak, in other words, it comes out very easily. I'd never trust it around my neck.
Great product.

Excellent product.......2003-03-03

Works as advertised, fast, easy and the case is pretty solid (seems like it would be pretty tough to break. I've had great success with Linksys products overall - continued here.

Durable, sleek, cross-platform file storage.......2003-02-28

As a student I found this device to be extremely handy. If you are tired of broken jewel cases or bent floppy disks in your backpack, the durable Linksys USB Drive is just for you. If you use different computers between home, work and school, the small and lightweight Linksys USB drive travels with ease.

The main advantage of this device is that it works on multiple platforms. I've used in on a Mac iBook, Windows 2000 Pro and Windows 98. No drivers are required except for Windows 98. A CD-ROM with software is included but you can also access the drivers on the Linksys website if your workstation does not have a CD drive.

The box also contains a USB extension cord, so if your desktop computer does not have front USB access you do not have to constantly reach behind your computer to insert the drive.

Overall, I rate this product highly. I recommend it to students and geeks alike!

Update: Still working as of June 2004 - no drivers required for Windows XP.
