Creative calls it the MediaBook, and though what details we have are low on specs, we know that it has an SD card for storage, and it runs on Creative’s “Zii” technology (which sounds an accessory for Nintendo’s Wii, but in reality is a subsidiary technology based on a “StemCell Computer” nano-sized processor). No word yet on what wireless network will be involved or what ebook formats it will support. Those who’ve seen the prototype device in person report that it has a surprisingly large screen, which sounds like it could be close to the Kindle DX in size.

epiZENter.net reports that Creative has been talking to Singapore Press Holdings as one of ten publishers expected to provide content for the MediaBook. When Creative announces pricing, a release date, and other details, we’ll bring them to you.
