The ZEN V and the ZEN V Plus are portable media players manufactured by Creative Technology. The user interface on this player, the same as the one on Creative's ZEN Vision:M was patented by Creative on January 9, 2005 [1] Creative has sued Apple over the use of this user interface, which Apple later settled for $100 million [2] The ZEN V Plus has accumulated many awards, including CNET Editor's Choice for June 2006.[3] The players are nearly identical, save for video playback and FM radio which the ZEN V Plus supports, the regular ZEN V does not.
In August 2007, Creative introduced a 16 GB version of the ZEN V Plus, making it the first flash-based player with that capacity.[4]
