I think one question that should be put up, because I see it being asked about a lot, is will the Zune play content you already have on your computer. Ripped CDs, downloaded music, etc. etc. A lot of people think that since it doesn't have DRM, it won't play on the Zune...

they are the dimensions of the Creative Zen Vision M, just edited my other post so it's clear for everyone. And they are in metric units so mm stands for millimeters and g for grams.
