Creative later in the fall will release a new colour screened photo-viewer to their MP3 player line. Very similar to Apple’s iPod Photo, the Creative Zen Micro Photo will sport an 8GB hard drive, 262K colour organic LED display which offers a very wide viewing angle, and richer more vivid colour.

It will measure in at the same size of the Zen Micro, just 3.3 by 0.7 by 2-inches and weighing 3.8 ounces. Battery life will be increased to 15 hours, an FM tuner with voice and FM recording are also added.

The price is estimated at US $249 for when it is released in stores this September or October. A choice of ten different device colours will also be available at that time.
