Creative outs own ZiiO Android tablet

Looks like Creative, maker of music players and speakers, also created their own Android tablet — the Creative Ziio and they come in 7-inch and 10-inch form factors.

Probably the most surprising fact between these two Android tablets is that Creative uses resistive screen displays when everybody else is moving towards capacitive display.

The Creative Ziio comes in 7″ TFT (480×800 pixels) and 10″ (1024×768 pixels) with internal storage options of 8GB and 16GB, expandable using an SD/microSD card slot up to 32GB. Both have WiFi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1 but no 3G options. There’s no Android Marketplace either so you’ll have to rely on the ZiiStore to get apps.

The price tag isn’t bad either — starts from Php13,500 to around Php15,000 for the 7-inch model. First impression review on PCPro.

    I see Creative is foregoing the multi-touch feature by using resistive screen displays. Tsk tsk. Bad move.

    Even though I hate Apple, I can objectively say that ZiiO Android Tablet will fail VS the iPad. Dell has much more potential even.
