Creative ZiiO 7-Inch Android Tablet Getting 2.2 Froyo Update

We have a bit of good news now for those of you that own the Creative ZiiO 7-inch Android tablet, which was first announced back in December last year, as we’ve just learned that the tablet PC is due to receive a 2.2 Froyo update later this week.

According to a recent article by Richard Lai over at engadget.com, the 10-inch Creative ZiiO will also be receiving the Android 2.2 Froyo update, but that will be at a later date. Users will be able to download the update for free from the support.creative.com website or the ZiiO Space portal on their tablet PC.

The upcoming Android 2.2 Froyo update will not only provide Creative ZiiO tablet owners with a new Text-to-Speech engine and greater localised language support, but it will also improve the security thanks to the added numeric pin or alpha-numeric passcode options to unlock the device.

It also provides owners with the flexibility of either installing applications using the device’s on-board memory or onto external storage media, as well as the ability to view pages in both mobile and desktop formats. This basically means that pages will now be able to seen in their original lay-out.
