Let's see what we have here:
iRiver E10 - I had a look at it in stores and liked the weight and feel of it. But I am curious about iriver plus 2 software. Everywhere I've read says it's terrible, and transfering files can be troublesome.
Zen Microphoto - I'm really interested in this, but cannot try it in stores as they don't carry it anymore (can still get it online). And the 8GB capacity is awesome. Does anyone have one? What's the user interface like- is it tag or folder-tree navigation? And I can't imagine the software being as bad as the iRiver.
Others that I may be interested in are:
Zen V Plus
Zen Neeon 2 (although I prefer buttons over a wheel scroll)
Zen Micro (no point as Microphoto is better)
Thanks.

The Zen Micro/Photo are pretty much the same, just with added photo viewer and color OLED display. The quality I can say without a doubt is better than the latest iPod as I found out unfortunately. The iPod definitely has the looks but the quality isn't the same when you've been a Zen user for 6+ years like I have. The software bundled with it is simple for anyone to follow, not out of the ordinary syncing every time it's connected. Point, click, drag and drop. Feel free to compare the Zen Micro Photo, Zen V & Zen V Plus.
