You & I

I am so HYPE!!!

Yeap!, Exhilarating, Excited, the adrenalin of having to put my hands onto my new toy. Is just soo freaking FANTABULOUS!!!, i am so so HYPE now!! hahaha. I jsut can't help it. You know the feeling when you are a little kid, u were longing for a toy that u like so much, and all of the sudden your dad or mom bought it and gives u a surprise. That feeling is just soooo freaking hype!!!Now you guys must be wondering by now, what new "toy" i have got myself ....Well, the picture below says it all............



YES!!! is the new mp3-cum-video-cum-photo player from Creative Zen Vision: M!!!
the one of the many players that is available in the market now that supports MP3, videos and photo. Most of u guys would know the other competitor will be the IPOD player, that serves the same function as well. Infact many instructors are carrying the IPOD video as compare to this Creative Zen Vision.

Now you guys must be asking, why Zen and not IPOD then? Good question. Actually i ahve done some homework myself, reading mag, surfing net and also gather information from other peers who has the IPOD. Below are the summary for your references......

1. Price : Obviously ZEN is much more cheaper as compare to IPOD Video. I got mine for RM1200 (pikom fair price lar...hehe) as for IPOD, with the same specs 30GB, is at the price of RM1499. (although i was told u can get it cheaper, Rm100-Rm200 cheaper from overseas e.g Singapore, HK or Australia)

2. Screen Resolution : ZEN support 262K colours as oppose to IPOD only has 65K colours. That explain the colour contrast ZEN is much more sharper and smooth as compare to IPOD Video.

3. Video support : ZEN supports all the video ext from Divx, Avi, Wmv, Mpeg3 to Mpeg4. As for IPOD, it only supports Mpeg4 (i was told, mpeg4 compression is pretty good, for a 3hrs show, u can compress to about 600mb)

4. Colour Casing: Yeap, u read it right. Colour casing is definately one of the criteria why i chose Zen instead of IPOD. Zen has colours from Black to white, gren to blue and pink. Whereelse, IPOD only has 2 colours, Black or White. Anyway, i got myself the Lime Green colour.....so glam, just like the picture!!! LOL!!!! (my fren was trying to influence me to get the black colour, but i end up choosing the green colour)

The only minor limitation or flaw that i can see in ZEN, obviously interm of the thickness, ZEN body is much more thicker and heavier as compare to IPOD. IPOD design is really slim and light. Thats where they gain points. But too me i am ok with the size, since i b4 i had this, i am using ZEN micro 20GB, also which has similar size and weight. So is not really a problem to me.

There you go guys. A short summary for you guys out there have yet to get the new 'toy' but toying the idea of getting one. Whatever it is, at the end of the day, is the enjoyment and satisfaction that counts. and with that, i am not gonna spend more time in here, and i shall play wiht my new toy now...Hahaha....
