STOP! COLLABORATE AND LISTEN
– CREATIVE’S BACK WITH A BRAND NEW INVENTION!
Creative redefines MP3 portability with its smallest disk-based digital audio player yet, featuring a capacity of up to 850* songs, fast PC connectivity, top-quality performance with MP3 and WMA audio and a striking design
Creative (Nasdaq: CREAF), the worldwide leader in digital entertainment products for the personal computer and the Internet, announces the launch of the new Creative MuVo2 personal digital audio player which will be available to buy from early October.
Built around a 1.5GB micro disk and with USB 2.0 connectivity for fast and easy downloads, the MuVo2 offers users a revolutionary solution for personal entertainment that combines great storage, superb MP3 and WMA audio playback, compact size (it measures just 66x66mm) and stylish design. It is also an excellent data transfer and sharing medium.
The Creative MuVo2 sets new standards for MP3 players. Inside its elegant, ultra-compact square case there’s a micro-sized disk with a huge 1.5GB capacity – enough for 850* songs (that’s 25 hours of 128kbps MP3 music) or a large library of documents, photos or presentations. High-speed file transfer is assured by the USB 2.0 interface, while the Creative MediaSource software makes audio conversion, archiving and management a simple and flexible proposition on the PC.
In use, the MuVo2 is quick and intuitive, belying the functionality on offer. A blue backlit LCD display and icon-based operating system keeps you updated on the progress of your favourite album, making navigation between tracks a breeze.
“The MuVo2 is a style statement of real quality and performance,” explains Julie McGuire, European MP3 business manager with Creative. “Creative created a new market with the original MuVo and continues to take the concept to new levels of performance and style.
“The styling makes it distinctive yet incredibly elegant, and it combines all these features with outstanding practicality. For example, it can store up to 25 hours of MP3 (50 in WMA) and comes with a 4-band equaliser and 4 equaliser presets. The rechargeable and removable lithium-ion battery provides up to 10 hours of continuous playback and it comes with a protective case with belt clip for ‘play as you go’ convenience.
“The MuVo2 is tough, good-looking and practical,” she concludes. “For people who want to make an impact, it’s the way ahead in personal entertainment and digital storage.”
The MuVo2 will have a SRP of £199.99 including VAT.
*Based on 3.5 minute songs at 64kbps in WMA, 425 songs in MP3 at 128kbps
