16gb Creative Zen V+ Now shipping!!!
comment: 8 | Wednesday, August 08 (2007) 07:21AM | Posted by Dominic
Yikes, that was so bloody quick. We only reported on this announcement a couple of days ago and usually Creative take a couple of weeks, or more likely months, between announcing a player and actually releasing it, but that seems to not be the case here. The biggest shocker for me is not that Creative have actually gotten the 16gb Zen V+ ready to ship, but that it's ready to ship in the US! What some of us consider to be Creatives "forgotten region".

From Creatives own US online store, they have the Black/White 16gb Zen V+ "In Stock (Available for Shipment)" for the incredibly low price of $249.99. Truly there is life in this old dog yet and boy is it putting up a fight.

In other Creative news, speculation over at our sister site epiZENter is that creative will be announcing a new player as soon as tomorrow, what this space for more news.

If this supported FLAC and Bluetooth A2DP I would buy it right now. Although it is tempting even without those features.

I for one am very pleased to see Creative's current trend of announcing great products and delivering on their announcement in an expeditous fashion (yes, even in the US!). First the Zen Stone, then the Zen Stone Plus and now 16GB of flash goodness in the ever-cute Zen V Plus. Go Creative!!!! These products also have great user reviews as well as great reviews from well-respected tech news sites. I am normally a glass-half-empty kinda gal but recent events in Creative's camp have turned me around (well, for now anyway ... LOL).

Way to go creative! That was amazingly quick. Perhaps there is hope. Now if they'd only add gapless....

If it had OGG support, I'd buy this in a second.

Damn if Creative would do away with MTP, or at least make it optional I would so buy this.
