Ipoh Touch Killer


Source: Huei (Lowyat.net)


There are tons of of ‘iPhone killers’ on the market - we’ve seen other vendors making similar interfaces and trying to be better - but Creative is trying to kill the iPod Touch instead with the recently revealed Creative Zii Egg Plaszma. An Android-powered device with a 3.5” display, the Zii Egg comes with an internal memory of 32GB and is expandable to 64GB with a SDHC memory card. With GPS and Wi-Fi, it also supports Flash Lite, and it can play 1080p format videos. Priced at USD$199 without tying customers up to with any particular telco (since it's not a phone), the Zii Egg isn't available in the US yet. I wonder when or if they’ll ever bring it in to Malaysia. The design isn't very appealing though, and they should probably work on that before trying to compete with Apple.
