Pocket-lint have published their review of the Creative Zen X-Fi 2 touchscreen media player. 'The X-Fi 2 ditches the keypad that used to sit alongside the display and now simply offers a "home" button to return to the main menu. The rest of the controls are operated via the touchscreen interface and aside from a microSD card slot for expanding the generous internal storage (the X-Fi 2 is available at capacities from 8 to 32GB) there are no other notable external features. Creative has gone the whole hog with touchscreen operation then, and it wasn't long before we were cursing the lack of a dedicated volume adjustor to avoid the rigmarole of unlocking and trawling through menus. Unfortunately this isn't too easy to do as this is far from the most responsive touchscreen on the market, paling in comparison to Apple's (admittedly far more expensive) recent efforts.'
