I'm sure the color screen is welcome, but does anyone really use these things to display their photos on?

Not me. My photos demand a Lambda printer! =P

I'm just thinking that Creative are not exactly being, well, Creative when coming up with this..

Not with current technology...
Screens resolution is too small and I *really* prefer bigger screens; nothing smaller than a 3.7" VGA PocketPC will do for me.

I could see using something like this for photos, if they would provide a cable and driver for downloading pictures straight from my digital camera. This way, I wouldn't have to get a computer out everytime my memory card was full (and wouldn't have to switch cards). I know, there are Mp3 players that do this now... but I did want to mention that I think that is a great use for a device like this.

I probably wouldn't use it for photos, but I still think it's worth a colour screen just for viewing album art.

That looks like a sweet device for sure. I have a Zen Xtra 30GB and like it alot.
