  By Bill Howard
  
  Review summary: Player Type: Portable Media Player
  
  Pros: Stylish looks. Exceptional battery life. Good audio and photo playback.
  
  Cons: Screen is susceptible to glare and smudges. Recorded video looks bad on a full-size TV. No kickstand.
  
  Verdict: For a first iteration, the Creative Zen Portable Media Center delivers on the promise of PMCs and Windows Media Player 10.
