SINGAPORE - January 4, 2005 - Creative (NASDAQ: CREAF), a worldwide leader in digital entertainment products, today introduced an entirely new category of portable speakers with the introduction of the TravelSound 500, which attaches directly to a notebook PC screen. Now anywhere a notebook PC is in use, the TravelSound 500 speaker system can provide MP3 and DVD movie playback with audio quality far superior to integrated notebook audio.
