We’ve been waiting for aeons, it seems like, for Creative to release its true competitor to the iPod Touch and worthy successor to the ZEN Vision:M. And boy, does it look like they have delivered a doozy. While the specifics are sketchy at best, the new Zii Egg is a touchscreen MP4 player with...

Rumormongering forthcoming: While it’s almost assured that there will be a Zii inside a Creative player by the end of the calendar year, Creative has always strayed away from venturing into the phone market. Change may be in the air, however, as a survey from the Zii team today asked a peculiar...
