Creative Zen V Price Drop
Creative today stepped up its attempts to draw share from Apple, SanDisk, and other media player makers by dropping the prices on its Zen V and Zen V Plus flash-based players. The Zen V becomes one of the lowest-cost, fully controllable players with a 1GB version of the core Zen player selling for 1GB, $10 less than the Zen Stone Plus; the high end of the line is also much less expensive than rivals, selling at $170 for the 8GB model versus $250 for competitors.
Features are unchanged for the players, which are capable of MP3/WAV/WMA music as well as photo viewing and line-in recording on every device. Zen V Plus models also bring in video playback and an FM radio tuner. Pricing should take effect immediately in the US. [via epiZENter]
