Creative Introduces Zen Neeon HD MP3 Player

createivezenneon.jpgCreative Technology introduced a new line of MP3 players. The Creative Zen Neeon allows MP3 users to carry a "different" player everyday through the application of Creative Stik-On skins.

With an elegant, reflective black piano finish, this lightweight, charismatic pint-sized wonder packs a surprising large 5GB storage capacity, built-in FM tuner, voice recorder and even line-in recording capabilities in a package of just the size of a small match box.

But what really sets it apart from other MP3 players is its ability to change its looks easily, thanks to Creative Stik-On skins, which adhere securely to the Zen Neeon, yet peel off easily when the inclination for change strikes. The initial launch of Creative Stik-On skins will feature 16 designs, with more to come in the near future. New designs will be available at asia.creative.com/zen.

As further testament to Creative's drive to offer more choices to our customers, the Zen Neeon comes in 10 different brushed metal backplate colours. Coupled with 7 changeable LED backlight colours, the Zen Neeon offers a large degree of customizability, making it appeal to a broad consumer segment.
