I saw news about latest mp3 player from Creative on dapreview today:
http://www.dapreview.net/comment.php?comment.news.3505
Creative, together with a few more mp3 players manufacturers has been moving away from UMS support and towards exclusive MTP support - in apparent cooperation with Microsoft. Sofar. But this player is UMS.
I wonder if this has anything to do with recent Zune announcements...
Like they are not playing in one team any more?
Player itself looks actually very good to me: 20 hr battery life is nice and if it is indeed UMS then it can be used with no software on any computer including mac or a PC running Linux.
