The MuVo TX concept is an original one. Basically, it is an ordinary USB flash-memory module. Plugged straight into a PC, it can be used simply as a support for file transfer. But you can also store MP3 or WMA files on the MuVo and transform it into a digital player by just plugging it into the little AAA battery module. The earphones are connected to the flash drive itself which has all the requisite playback buttons. The MuVo TX is miniscule (1.4" x 2.9" x 0.6" / 36.7 x 74 x 16 mm) and weighs just 1.5 oz (43 grams) with the battery. This makes it a player that you really can take anywhere, particularly for those of you who are the sporty types. By the way, Creative had the bright idea of supplying it with a case and armband, so you can put the player in the clear plastic protective case, which you can then fix to a belt.

The case also clips to the armband, which has an adjustable Velcro system that is very convenient. This will especially please joggers and fitness addicts.

The neck sling is no longer featured, however, but you can easily make one yourself. On the subject of accessories. The European model and the next series in production for the U.S. market will only be available with one battery module in black.
