At their IFA 2007 Press Conference Creative pretty much said “iPod who?” as all eyes were on their credit-card sized ZEN PMP. The tiny device - which measures just 55 x 83 x 12mm - is easily Creative’s best mobile device to date, with a 2.5-inch, 16.7-million-colours screen, a choice of 4, 8 or 16GB of internal [...]
Creative has just announced the release of their latest PMP in the Zen line which is small, yet still packs a decent-sized screen.
If I’m blunt, the Creative Stone struck me as being a bit “meh”. Apple has done the screenless PMP already, and was - in my opinion - shown up nicely as competitors lined up to undercut it in price while simultaneously adding features and a screen. Perhaps Creative have read my mind, anyway, because they’ve [...]
Creative won’t give up on media player market yet and is adding a new Zen to their player portfolio. The Zen Wav, a new player that is believes to be competiting with iPod Nano. The Zen Wav has similarity in navigation feature with its sibling Zen Neeon using a joystick and two buttons in front [...]
Apple has been quite successful with its iPod shuffle. The screenless iPod is targeted to lower budget iPod users and provide super portability of an audio player. Creative will not sit tight and let Apple roam around the industry with every product line up they have.
It seems like it’s been ages since we’ve seen the smiling face of Everything USB’s Scott Clark as he uses any excuse to get photos of himself onto the internet.

Current fashion in architecture seems split between designing buildings that stand out in their surroundings and make a statement, and buildings that blend into the environment and whose statement is more about living harmoniously with what was already there. The problem with the latter, perhaps, is that in preserving the location you sometimes have to [...]
Modding computers is all very well, but it’s a bit niche - I can’t exactly see my mother picking up the Dremel and adding a window to her computer (or her kettle, for that matter) - what’s needed is an easier way for people to imprint their individuality on an object. That in mind, the [...]
It’s easy to overlook other DAPs when Apple keep insisting on refreshing the iPod range every twenty-three minutes, but they’re there alright, jumping up and down, waving their arms, screaming until their little voices are horse about their added features. Jenn at Pocketables took pity on one of them, the 2gb Creative Zen V, and [...]
Designers seem determined to step out from behind the drawing boards and into the spotlight, and nobody gets more column inches (or, for that matter, hyperbole) than BMW’s Chris Bangle. Design & Emotion have interviewed him, covering everything from 5-Axis milled door handles to the balance of design and semantics, with the much-maligned i-Drive interface [...]
