BATTERY FOR Creative Labs Zen Vision M 30GB ACCU
29 June 2016
Battery compatible but the controller that comes with it is not.
This was advertised as being suitable for the Zen Vision M. It physically fitted but the device would not recognize that it was charged. I finally had to remove the charge monitor PCB in the battery (it's under the tape at the top) and replace it with the Creative charge monitor PCB from the original dead battery that came with the Zen. It then worked. This was a very fiddly process (it's not plug-in: this involved fine soldering under a strong lens) and I take the view that the supplied battery should not be advertised as compatible with the Zen if people have to change circuit boards around to make it work (I understand from a forum that Creative's firmware is designed to be 'picky' about monitor devices to stop people using generic batteries). The battery itself - ie the thing that holds charge - is fine and it's good to have the Zen working again.

One of the best. mosy playful philosophical books of the 20th century.
I have felt for many years that this would be my choice for a 'desert island book' (if you were shipwrecked and could take only one book with you...). I read it as an undergraduate when it was first out; it has informed and shaped my research ever since. The problem is that I keep lending mine to people, and they are bad at giving them back, which is why I have to buy new copies from time to time... The book is about, amongst other things, logic, levels, networkds, feedback, self-reference and consciousness. It happens to be very funny.
