I agree starts to look like a Nintendo controller. They should have been color matched. ]]>Dec 3rd 2009 11:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/

Basically they designed it already and will be selling the design to manufacturers to build and sell to 3rd parties.

At least that's how I understand it from what I've read so far]]>Dec 3rd 2009 11:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 3rd 2009 11:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 4th 2009 8:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 3rd 2009 11:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 3rd 2009 11:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 3rd 2009 11:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/
Yeah TonicBoy mentioned that above, too. I totally agree. Ever notice how much better prototype renderings look? It's usually because there is nearly no bezel to speak of. Just glorious glorious screen real estate.]]>Dec 3rd 2009 11:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 4th 2009 8:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/*Schwing!*

They need to mash the Trinity and the Egg together.
Then they'd have a seriously sexy phone/media device.
Though i think we should wait to see what happens when someone is close to bring it to market, so we know how it's going to perform in a real world situation.

i'm sure it's cool.. but, as per usual, still worthless when compared to an iphone.]]>Dec 4th 2009 8:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 4th 2009 10:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/
Let us all praise it, for it is king!]]>Dec 4th 2009 11:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/
Android has a sloppy interface. sure you can make a super high resolution ultraphone that does desktop 3d gaming and blends you up a smoothie every morning but in reality i'd rather have a phone that's really good at everyday tasks.. The iphone is way better and way more consistant when it comes to everyday tasks. I've owned a g1 and loads and loads of windows mobile and palm phones, the build quality sucks, the interface sucks and they pretty much all around just suck.

so as it stands.. no. nothing can beat the almighty iphone...

the other stuff is really cool hardware wise, has a lot of good potential but currently the competitors to the iphone are just making ferraris without a steering rack, sure it's great to look at and it's super fast but in reality it's probably going to be pretty crappy to drive..]]>Dec 4th 2009 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/
It uses the same ARM CPU...

I hate to say this though. The Zii trinity is far to thick. Consumers want quality. They dont care about price, thats what mobile providers are for.
I hate to say this as I stated that there shouldnt be compatison against apple products, but well, the truth is, if it isnt thinner than an iPhone, and doesnt have the features an iPhone has or more, then it wont make it in this field.
The mobile market can be a tough battle for a company like Creative, and it will indeed take alot more than a few ideas to get through. If Creative wants to survive in this field, they will have to make sacrifices, and grow connections with alot more people and industries than they do now.
They will need to be prepared to think outside of the box which is placed outside of the box, you know.. something completely new, something completely fresh.]]>Dec 4th 2009 11:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/Dec 5th 2009 12:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/zii-trinity-smartphone-concept-handled-on-video/
