Creative ran the 5G iPod through their replicator and came up with the Zen Vision:M.
The M comes with 30GB, and size-wise is similar to the 30GB Apple iPod (aka Video iPod) but is about one third thicker.
Feature-wise — compared to the iPod — Creative has added support for some additional video formats, such as WMV9 and DivX, but has not included Apple’s AAC or the AIFF audio formats. They did however throw in an FM tuner & a voice recorder.
A good feature-by-feature comparison of the Vision:M vs.the 30GB and the 60GB iPods can be found at this link.

I think a lot of Apple products have been run through a lot of replicators over the years.
