Looks like Creative is pulling an iPod with these new portable speakers that dock and charge the Zen Micro whilst pumping out its solidly anti-Apple audio. For $150 you can pick up the Creative Traveldock, what with its 35 hours of double AA battery life, four speakers, and remote control. Just don't get confused and mistakenly pick up any of those speakers for that other player, y'hear?
Jesus christ, is the only thing they can do are making fake rip-offs of other products?!
That is really really ugly.
and the big difference is that 3rd parties are making the iPod compliments whereas Creative has to do everything itself. that will count in the long run.
I have a creative zen micro and i absolutely love it. I just wish I had a nice leather case or somthing for it.
I bought it and like it, maybe its overpriced but it looks and feels high quality (the photo here simply doesn’t do it justice). The sound is very nice and pumps out quite a volume. It’s deceptively small and packs away into a secure little case with speaker guard. The only negative would be a lack of integrated bass speaker.
Creative started the MP3 revolution and lost out to Apples canny marketing, now its back in the game and Apple should start to worry as each new product improves the Creative offering making them the stylish, individual, alternative to the global domination of Apple in the MP3 market.
If you don’t fancy being an Apple branded sheep the Zen Micro is a great option and finally we have a great custom speaker set for it.
Am looking to buy some of these speakers for my new zen micr - which by the way I'm very pleased with!!
Looks like a nice product. I've been waiting for more accessories for the Micro. It's been a long wait but it's nice to finally see a docking station with integrated speakers. I get jealous whenever I see all of the cool iPod gear.
The Zen Micro is great. Best part is that you're not tied into the itunes corporate matrix of having to get your music from Apple, etc.
BTW: I got a really cool leather case for mine, made by "rhino skin" from mobileplanet.com supposedly walmart.com also has it, but a little bit more expensive.
I have the Zen Micro, and quite simply - its got good sound, quality and looks. Well I am happy to buy this babe because just look at its features! I strongly recommend the Zen Micro because its slick, elegant, and overall - great!
