I'm in the market for a new MP3 player. I am comparing the following MP3 Players with video capacity, and Creative seems to be my favorite. What would you recommend?
New Creative Zen VisionM: http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zenvisionm/
Microtek MH-210: http://www.microtekusa.com/mh210_big2.html
iRiver H10: http://www.iriveramerica.com/prod/hd/h10_20gb.aspx
Cowan iAudio i5: http://eng.iaudio.com/ - somone mentioned their are problems with it & a few things I didn't like.
And of course, the upcoming Dell DJ Gen3.
The H10 has video support? And the new DJ will, too? Well, don't go with the iRiver unless you can get it for a better price than $300, because for $30 more you can buy the Vision M with 10 more GB's.

I have the Toshiba X30 (http://www.igearbox.com/product_info.php?products_id=317&osCsid=7446ab2a3e3ab1e2111e15c9d8e56ac6). This player probably won't make it to the U.S. for awhile, but you can get one for reasonable prices. iGearbox.com has them for $279! That makes it the same price as the 30GB iPod! Another good news! Its softwave is in english!. The LCD screeen is amazing and the sound quality is not bad at all! Overall, the X30 is a great choice and a great value for a DAP. I strongly recommend checking it out.

I was looking the other day and I foud this: Neuros 442 (http://www.neurosaudio.com/store/prod_442.asp)
It looked the best for me.
Most important specs for me:
-3.5 inch screen
-40 GB
-5h video playback
-but $400
It also has open source code and a community that is starting to develop if that means anything to you (it does to me)

The honest comparo IMO would be currently:
Zen M
iPod 30GB Video
The others are lacking in many ways to the above two.
