Sneak peek at the Creative Zii player
Not much has been heard about the Creative Zii chip in months. So, it's exciting to see that Creative has filed papers with the FCC, hinting at two versions of a Zii player: a consumer model, and the Zii EGG for developers.
The Zii will be a touchscreen MP4 media player featuring WiFi and Bluetooth. Perhaps most exciting is the addition of an HD camera and an SD slot. With a developers version, let's just sit back and wait to see what apps will be brought to the table.
With so many iPhone apps, maybe developers will be looking for a less-crowded marketplace when the Zii becomes a reality.

unfortunately the iPhone is the optimal design for this type of thing so yeah its going to look like the iPhone, but it should be lots better, and not a phone

it looks like an iPhone and is spelled like it is an add on to a wii. Corporate lawyers are drooling with the posibilities.
I do like what looks like a SD slot and a camera though. Adding music without having to install software is a plus.
