Creative Throws a Stone at the iPod shuffle

If you have been toying with the idea pf picking up an iPod Shuffle you might want to put a hold on that until you check out the new Creative Zen Stone. The Stone is aimed directly at the Shuffle but it carries a price $40 less than the iPod competitor. The Zen Stone will carry an MSRP of only $39.99 for 1Gb of storage space. At that price you don’t get a LCD display, but the player is very nice looking with the glossy black and rounded lines. Play time is quoted at up to 10 hours from the built-in rechargeable battery. Supported formats include MP3, WMA (DRM9) and Audible (no support for subscription content). There are even colors available like black, red, pink, yellow, blue and white. The Stone measures in at 53.7 x 35.3 x 12.8mm.
