According to gmp3, the price of Creative’s new X-Fi 2 player has been slashed in France. The news will be most welcome to consumers…
Although the X-Fi 2 is the first Creative player to boast a touchscreen, it still lacks some features found in other players. For example, there is no sign of any wireless capabilities. Both the Zune HD ($289) and iPod Touch ($279) retail for a slightly higher price yet include features like HD radio, Internet browsing, and application stores all of which are not found on the $229 X-Fi 2.
What does this mean? Expect too see a global revision of X-Fi 2 retail prices. Considering the ratios of the price cuts in Europe, the X-Fi 2 will be retailing for $199.99, $149.99, and $119.99 for the 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB respectively (instead of $239.99, $179.99 and $129.99).
