Creative Technology has introduced a new addition to its already extensive family of portable audio players.

Available through Sahara Computers, the Creative MuVo Slim is said to be designed for the individual who appreciates rich features combined with ultimate portability and style.

The Creative MuVo Slim is a slim 7mm thick, yet, according to the company, it has exceptional audio quality and top-shelf performance capabilities.

Two versions are available: the MuVo Slim with 256MB memory and the model with 128MB memory. Both players come with an FM radio and recorder.

No taller or wider than a credit card, the MuVo Slim is designed to fit easily in a shirt or suit pocket, briefcase, or any size of purse to carry for business or social occasions.

It aims to suit both the home or boardroom environment and also make a good travelling companion. Included with the MuVo Slim is a black folding case that aims to protect the player while enhancing its style statement.

Initially available in sophisticated-looking silver and black, the MuVo Slim will later this year be offered in a variety of colours to match different styles and fashion tastes.

â€ÃƒÆ’…“Technology today is all about keeping consumers mobile. Digital entertainment devices are geared for affordable performance and quality, and we are happy to distribute next generation audio visual equipment, especially those devices that are versatile and practical enough to fit into one’s pocket,â€ÃƒÆ’‚ comments Atul Gupta, MD of Sahara Computers.

Featuring a built-in microphone, the MuVo Slim 256MB is designed to capture up to 16 hours of dictations, conversations and reminders, while safeguarding clever ideas before they are forgotten.

A useful business tool, the MuVo Slim 256MB carries more data than floppy disks, for transport of company slide presentations, digital images or voice and music files, the company adds.

The Creative MuVo Slim is said to feature an FM radio with 32 presets, plus FM recording capabilities to record radio shows or songs.

The player’s removable battery is rechargeable via the player’s USB connection, to provide up to 17 hours of continuous playtime, the company concludes.
