Title: Creative Zen Stone MP3 player
Verdict: In a year dominated by shiny surfaces and touchscreens, the Zen Stone is lacking a certain wow. But if you want a no-nonsense player to accompany you as you run, skate, or endure the morning commute, it won't weigh you down and it won't break the bank.
Summary: Creative and Apple have long been arch enemies in the MP3 player market. Now it looks as though Creative fancies another go, snapping at Apple's foreshortened Shuffle.

Title: Creative Zen Stone 1GB
Pros: Great price, Flash memory, Decent sound quality
Cons: Battery life could be better, Feels a little lightweight
Verdict: It has twice the capacity of the iPod shuffle and costs half as much. There really isn't much more to say
Summary: Looking at and holding the Zen Stone, it's pretty obvious where its name comes from. It feels pleasantly like a pebble in the hand, though it's considerably lighter (18.5g) and the idea generally isn't to skim one across the water. But anyway...
