Patience my friendWill probably be delivered tomorrow as I think they arrived after their usual dispatch time.
But I've never had a seperate sound card before....and it's pretty and red!!!
Just got my OEM card and tbh not overly happy as it doesn't even have the red shielding, may have to look at returning.
Wasnt expecting the Mic but was hopeful as the description page did have it at the time of ordering.
The image still showing the Red cover so expected that to be included not as an extra only on the retail.

Wait...you're saying the OEM version is just the card bare without the red cover? If that is the case, I may have to do the same and order the retail version. The red cover was one of the reasons I bought the retail version for my gaming PC.
I would also have not expected the mic to be included, but with no red cover? Not acceptable really.
Can OcUK actually confirm if this is the case with the OEM cards?
Thats correct it's just the bare card no EMI shield or mic included.

Then OCUK have a lot to answer with an incorrect image (that doesn't bother me) and incorrect description (brought OEM one for the mic)...
EDIT: Wasn't at home to get mine today (left calling card) but getting DPD to leave item in a safe place tomorrow, so can confirm tomorrow afternoon
EDIT2: Just noticed the OEM description has now been updated, removing any reference to the included mic, will be taking this up in ocuk's support forum area once I have mine tomorrow, however would like a public response from OCUK here to confirm or deny these reports...

You should have checked on Creatives site. http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowArticle.aspx?sid=107797
SB1500 = retail, SB1502 = OEM (bulk)
However, the lack of the red EMI shield was completely unacceptable so I had to return it. There was no excuse at all.
Well that clears that one up. But as mentioned, the picture should highlight the fact there is no red EMI shield. When mine arrives, it's going straight back. And I will get the retail version.

No, overclockers should get their details right before putting a product up for sale. I bought an item with a microphone, I await my delivery of it tomorrow.
I replaced my X-Fi with one. So much more clarity and even more features in the software that comes with it. Just make sure you get the retail version and not the OEM
