From left to right, the Zen Micro box, the manual, universal power adapter, neckstrap and USB cable; The wired remote and the Zen Micro player, the battery, and convertible belt clip and player stand; Earphones, pouch, installation CD, a Quick Tips sheet, advertorial for companion speakers, and technical support information.

Mr Sim claims the earphones provided will provide very good sound quality. In my opinion, it wasn't that great, but still better than most bundled earphones.

Remarks

Apple has spared a thought for its PC users, and the inclusion of the USB cable is welcome. This can only mean Apple is realising the huge market potential of PC users. The packaging is classy and makes it a fun experience taking everything out of the box.

Creative, too, has learnt from Apple, and moved away from the previously more geeky packaging, towards the more classy. A definite improvement.
