Creative has launched the follow up to the ZEN Stone – the ZEN Stone Plus - a featherweight 2GB MP3 player with some additional features.

The ZEN Stone Plus boasts a round blue display for easy, at-a-glance track and feature selection, an FM radio, a clock that also functions as a stopwatch and voice recording.

Like the ZEN Stone, the ZEN Stone Plus comes in six high-gloss colours: black, white, red, blue, pink and green.

It has the same smooth, contoured design as the previous version but its 2GB memory can store up to 1000 songs with easy drag-and-drop functionality.

The songs can be organised in favourite artist or playlists folder and can be played in normal or shuffle modes.

Here at Pocket-lint.co.uk we liked the Zen Stone, giving at a 9/10 rating and a "Hot Pocket" accolade, but one thing we did think it could do with was a clip.

Creative have addressed this ommision via accessories as you can now buy silicone skins that come with a clip available in five colours.

Other accessories available include a sporty armband, a wristband that doubles as a watch band for the clock/stopwatch feature and a keychain which includes a tiny case to carry the player.

The Creative Zen Stone Plus is available now for £49.99, for more information follow the link below.
