Creative shipped its first flash based MP3 player dubbed NOMAD in 1999 and in 2000 launched the Creative Nomad Jukebox which was a high capacity hard drive based media player. Subsequently, later launches of the Creative MuVo and ZEN family of players received critical acclaim and garnered three consecutive Best of CES awards. The Creative ZEN Vision:M won the overall Best in Show award at CES in 2006, edging out more than 2500 other companies.
