Weighing a full ounce less than its Zen Micro sibling, Creative's Zen Neeon is a drive-based player with fashion on the brain.
We think the Neeon looks nude, but Creative is pushing so-called Stik-On skins that adhere to the glossy-black face of the unit to give it different looks at different times. This may or may not be something that most users care about, but if stickers aren't your thing, the Neeon features seven different LCD backlight colors and ten different colors of brushed aluminum backplates.
For the person who cares more about their MP3 player than what it's wearing next Tuesday, the Zen Neeon has many hardware features to be proud of. In addition to the 5GB / 6GB micro hard drive, the Neeon boasts an integrated FM tuner with recorder, a voice recorder, a line-in No-PC-Required recording port, and portable mass storage functionality for storing and moving files like a mini mobile hard drive.
