Creative recently announced the Zen Sleek, a new 20GB hard drive based digital audio player. The company claims everyone can enjoy using the Zen Sleek, thanks to the intuitive design of its backlit Touch Pad control which gives natural, one-handed fingertip management of all the player's functions, even in poor light.

It is complemented by the large blue backlit display, which provides all the information users need about tracks, artists, playlists and settings. The Zen Sleek can store up to 10,000 songs in WMA or 5,000 in MP3, while quick and easy downloads from a PC at up to a song per second are assured by support for USB 2.0. It can also record direct from its built-in FM radio and microphone and offers playtimes up to 18 hours from the rechargeable battery.

  • Stunning design, in smooth aluminium and cool white contours.
  • 20GB hard disk stores up to 10,000 songs in WMA or 5,000 in MP3. Also supports WAV.
