    The Zii is out? I saw somewhere that they released the Android installer or something. But I thought the device was still for Developers?

    Yeah, its the android installer that will be supposedly release next week. What I meant was that I think it was time for me to get the developer model now since android is gonna be released.

    I hope the Zii drops in price or has a price that will compete with the iPod touch 3G & Zune HD. Cause.. well... 399.99 for 32 GB seems really high now.

    I think that's for the SDK, and you get the Zii Egg for free?

    I'm pretty sure that the price is for each device:

    399 is the price for the Plaszma SDK, you get the actual device for 'free'. But isn't a 32GB 3G touch 299? So basically it's charging you 200 for the SDK+developer cost and 200 for the device which is 32GB (+ remember the sd slot also, so it's pretty much worth it right now)

    And if android is coming out next week.. hmmm.. sexy beast it will be. And I don't understand how it's ugly? It looks very similar to the iphone.

    I think some people don't like the looks of it because it's a bit thick. Looks to be as thick as 1 and a half iPhones to me, from videos I've seen. The Plaszma OS looks really bad IMO, so Android is the way to go. It looks similar to an iPod touch on the front, which is OK. But I wish they made the top and bottom same size, instead of the bottom being bigger than the top, I mean the black parts.

    Yeah, I hate how the bottom and top aren't even. Looks weird to me.
