IFA 2009: Creative Unveils Second Gen Zen X-Fi Comments

An all-round dissappointment. Why waste money on bringing out a product that is soo buggy and cannot compete with other offerings out in the market. The only upside to this is the pricing which for $229, you get a 32gb drive compared to apple's itouch priced at $229 for 8gb and $399 for 32gb. This is not enough considering the lack of innovation in the software and poor implememtation of touchscreen.

I really dont get Creative anymore. they could have been better off investing in smart minds who can utilize android SDK and optimize it for their Zii EGG platform or better yet focus on their plazma OS and release the product under the creative brand.

Coreplayer for android will most likely be released sometime next year which is a very capable multimedia mobile application. This coupled with the Android marketplace and the Zii platform is a pure winner in my eyes but for some reason, the company is lacking in both initiative and creativity.
