Following is the press release on Creative’s latest MP3 player/photoviewer…

Creative is proud to launch the Zen™ Sleek Photo, a 20GB MP3 player and photo viewer designed to support music download and subscription services. Featuring a striking 262,144-colour BriteVue™ OLED 1.7-inch screen, the Zen Sleek Photo displays bright, vibrant photo slideshows and crisp, vivid colour menus.

Encased in smooth brushed aluminum, the Zen Sleek Photo fits nicely in the palm of one hand, holds up to 10,000 songs or tens of thousands of digital photos, and delivers up to 19 hours playback from a single battery charge. The Zen Sleek Photo also offers users several new options for personalising their player. Customisable themes, including Vibrant, Earth, Cool, Peace, Romantic, Pastel, Jungle, and Fire allow users to change the overall colour scheme of menus while navigating through Creative’s patented user interface to find a particular track, playlist, artist, or album. Users can also select a favorite photo as a “wallpaper” background image on the Zen Sleek Photo and choose from a variety of coloured effects to change the look of the image.

Zen Sleek Photo MP3 players also feature:
* A mesmerising blue glow from the backlit buttons.
* Creative’s innovative vertical “Touch Pad” control enables quick and simple navigation to specific albums, artists, genres, tracks, or playlists.
* Crystal-clear high-fidelity playback at 97dB SNR, which can either be customised with a five-band graphic equaliser or by using any of the eight equalisation preset settings - including rock, jazz, pop, and classical EQ.

An optional docking cradle for the Zen Sleek Photo features a USB port for connecting to a PC for transferring digital tracks or easily attaching speakers, like the matching silver and white Creative I-Trigue® 3400s. The Zen Sleek Photo includes a carrying case, high-fidelity headphones, a USB 2.0 cable, and a power adapter. The player is bundled with Creative MediaSource™, an easy-to-use application for ripping CDs, organizing entire digital music collections, and easily transferring MP3 and WMA files."
