I used the clip+ for over 3 years, one failed and I lost the other one. I decided to go for the clip zip as the replacement, with some trepidation. I'm 100% happy with the zip, I think it's equal to or better than the + in every way. Bigger screen is nice, though the resolution is poor. It's great having all my devices using micro-usb now. Having just one with mini-usb was a real pain ("where's that &$#%@ cable?!!!!").
