New Vision:M & W
Creative has released an update to the Creative Zen Vision:M and announced the anticipated Zen Vision:W. The new Zen Vision:M introduces does not add any new features, but now includes a 60GB model. The new Zen Vision:W is similar in appearance to the original Zen Vision; however the Vision:W is a video centric media player with a 4.3-inch widescreen display and is compatible with MPEG-1/2/4 and XviD videos-- allowing up to 4.5 hours of playback on its rechargeable/removable battery pack. In addition to improved compatibility and a larger screen, it offers a CompactFlash card slot that allows users of certain cameras to transfer photos to the player without first uploading to a computer. The Vision:W will ship within Singapore in 30GB ($412 US) and 60GB ($475 US) models during September -- a US release will follow. The 60GB Vision:M is scheduled to ship at the end of September for the equivalent price of $380 US. [images included]
