Creative has launched the Zen Sleek Photo, a 20GB MP3 player and photo viewer designed to support music download and subscription services.

Featuring a 262,144-colour BriteVue OLED 1.7-inch screen, the Zen Sleek Photo displays bright, vibrant photo slideshows and crisp, vivid color menus.

The device is encased in smooth brushed aluminum, it can hold up to 10,000 songs or tens of thousands of digital photos, and it delivers up to 19 hours playback from a single battery charge.

The Zen Sleek Photo also offers users several new options for personalizing their player. Customizable themes, including Vibrant, Earth, Cool, Peace, Romantic, Pastel, Jungle, and Fire allow users to change the overall color scheme of menus while navigating through Creative's patented user interface to find a particular track, playlist, artist or album.

Users can also select a favorite photo as a "wallpaper" background image on the Zen Sleek Photo and choose from a variety of colored effects to change the look of the image.

An optional docking cradle for the Zen Sleek Photo features a USB port for connecting to a PC for transferring digital tracks or easily attaching speakers, like the matching silver and white Creative I-Trigue 3400s.

The Zen Sleek Photo includes a carrying case, high-fidelity headphones, a USB 2.0 cable and a power adapter. The player is bundled with Creative MediaSource, an easy-to-use application for ripping CDs, organizing entire digital music collections, and easily transferring MP3 and WMA files.
