Overall Interface (6.00)
The Zen's software is well laid out. It's similar to the iPod Classic and Nano in that its interface is a series of lists. On the main menu, the highlighted item's text grows in size, accompanied by a small image that describes that menu item's functionality. At the top of the screen are the above two items in the list; below are the next two items. Clicking on an item in the main menu will cause a smaller menu to pop out with a list of options.
While straight-forward, there's really nothing exceptional about the Creative Zen X-Fi's software. In a world of touchscreens and aesthetic fluorishes, the X-Fi's software is a little boring and utilitarian.
