 The new Creative ZEN V Plus Multimedia player is a one stop solution to all your digital needs and takes multi-tasking to the next level. This ZEN V Plus is a MP3 Player, a Photo viewer, a Video player and even has a FM radio! Oh and if you are expecting some bulky device, boy are you wrong! This player adds a whole new meaning to compact and is available in capacities 1GB, 2GB and 4GB.
The Creative ZEN V Plus includes a vibrant full color 1.5" OLED display which has a 128 x 128 resolution. One good thing about this player is its ability support to music subscriptions like Yahoo! Music Unlimited, Urge, Napster To Go, and Rhapsody To Go. Many see this now as a prerequisite since many consumers feel limited and restricted! The player syncs with Microsoft Outlook and includes a built-in organizer with Calendar, Contacts and Tasks.
The Creative ZEN V Plus strives to make a style statement but that doesn’t mean it’s frivolous. Apart from supporting all sorts of audio and video formats, the player also includes a voice recorder and is equipped with 8 presets and custom EQ settings. It will be available by August and one has to shell out US $229.99 for the 4GB model in glossy black with blue accents, US $169.99 for the 2GB model in glossy black or white with green accents, and US $129.99 for the 1GB model in glossy black or white with orange accents Capacity: 1GB/ 2GB/ 4GB Song Capacity: Black with orange accent 1GB White with orange accent 1GB 500 WMAs/ 33hrs (64 kbps), 250 MP3/ 16hrs (at 128kbps)1

 You wouldn't think it would have taken Cornice 8 months to announce a 2GB growth in their drives, but the portable drive manufacturer announced their first (but not the first) 12GB 1-inch Dragon series drive, due to ship to OEMs Q306 for $85 apiece. It'll still be a little while before you start seeing portables showing up with 12GBs of capacity (think about how few 10GB devices you see as is), but something tells us Cornice is really going to have to step up their game if they're going to outrun Samsung and their NAND flash production abilities.

 Averatec, a company known best for churning out laptops (and UMPCs as of late) has triangulated a route into the portable navigation market. The Voya 350, its first attempt in the lucrative GPS arena, is a handheld-sized unit that packs all the standard features you'd expect in such a device, and unfortunately not a whole lot more. Powered by a 300MHz Samsung CPU, 64MB of RAM, and operating on Windows CE.net, the Voya 350 displays turn-by-turn guidance while utilizing the usual NAVTEQ maps shown on the 3.5-inch TFT touch-screen. While no built-in hard drive is included, you can store excess data using the SD / MMC slot. Semi-noteworthy features include the 4 hours of battery life you can rely on while trekking in the rough, and weighing just 6 ounces, it makes for an easy tag-along. Although countless similar units have been available for quite some time, it's not really as if one more unit is going to water down the GPS receiver market aymore, so if you're hunting around for a portable nav device that's a tad easier on the wallet than other offerings, the Voya 350 -- albeit under-featured -- looks like a solid value, and can be located now for around $400.
