Vado in HD version!

rain_ie — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 17:12:54 +0800

I'm not surprise to finally see a hd version of the vado from creative. It was available for preorder at sitex. But I didn't get it as I was worried about the specs. I'm going to try my luck at http://www.myvado.com/happen/contest.aspx first. The bundled accessories of usb extension cable & hdmi cable seem nice to have.

Recommendation for new player!

rain_ie — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 23:22:19 +0800

Hi there,
I am looking for a flash player which is lightweight and nice for watching videos. I would go for flash as harddisk players are rather unstable at times. An expansion slot will be nice since I can just insert my sd card and play my videos directly. I have been looking at a few players but not sure which one to pick. Any suggestions?

Finally, a pci-e x-fi card

rain_ie — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 12:15:51 +0800

See http://sg.vr-zone.com/articles/Creative_Re...80.html#Scene_1 creative has finally introduced a pci-e version of the x-fi. Any reviews on the card yet? It's nice to see a x-fi card that can work on pci-e slot and win vista.

Recovery tool for creative players

rain_ie — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 14:44:44 +0800

I have came across a creative mp3 recovery tool at http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/MP3Pl...ool/welcome.asp?

I have not seen this there previously so I assume this is something new for creative players. I believe what this will do is that it will help to resolve most mp3's issue by either updating or replacing its firmware. Have anyone use it before? Is it easy to use? Seems to be a quick solution!
