Creative's Zen Neeon shows up in dress

By Ryan Block

Creative's been on a big kick lately
rebadging their own 
older flash players to make 'em new again in competition with the Shuffle; now they've done something even more bizarre with their new Zen Neeon, a player that seems to directly compete with their own
Zen Micro (it's even 1.8 x 3.1 x 0.6-inches,
significantly smaller than the iPod Mini and Zen Micro). If nothing else, it keeps pace with the whole slapping a new label on things angle, as it's apparently going to have four series of four skins in Japan (that's 16 skins, math majors), in addition to its ten body colors, and seven backlight shades. On the specs end, it'll be 5GB, play MP3,
PlaysForSure WMA, WAV, have USB 2.0 (and charging), voice recording, FM radio, and a 128 x 64 screen. We can't say we're not a little intrigued by this one, yeah?
