What could Creative's stemcell computing be?

CES
I'm not sure what to make of this, but the few of you who have been following the music technology scene would have probably chanced upon Creative's Zii teaser site. What could four leaf clovers that jiggle once every few seconds and the word Zii with a cursive slant at the last stroke of the letter Z and a design play on the two "i"s mean? The only thing Creative has to say about it is that, its stemcell (note: It's one word) computing concept/product will change everything we know. Could it be a social-networking site? Or a new processing chip as blogsite Epizenter reported? I'm definitely curious about this. Fortunately, we don't have to wait too long for the answers as CES is just a couple of days away. Give us your best shot on what Zii could be.

You sure you really wanna know?

Well I'll tell you anyway! It's a modular media player device that interfaces with Nintendo's Wii. Creative Zen + Nintendo Wii = Zii!*

*It's a longshot but you never know.

Bilological Computing in the making?? Doubt so.

Most like something "greener" with better battery life.

Lets wait!

Like what namvijay said, I was thinking along the lines of an innovation in "greener" technology. Also the difference in the design of the "i"s looks like a social networking something to me.

That's about it, though. Just lots of different ideas that I can't put together.

Stemcells have the potential to change into anything. Could it be a universal platform or chip for most of their music products? Or is Creative going to come up with their line of laptops?

I think it is music and video player that can "talk" to each other (owner authenticated) and allow new music and/or video to be "created" in each other unit via wireless (infra & ad-hoc), bluetooth, infra-red. The long shot here is the ability to "create" new music on the fly where music and videos are somewhat mixed via an automated or user-defined algorithm.

@andy Interesting theory. Players that can "talk" to each other, like a more developed concept of the music-sharing in the Zune.

i think its a new mobile phone....if the z symbol could be split then it becomes a 7 and a wave like spindle shaped thing...and the 2 `i`of different shape must signify relationships...so it must be some device that keeps people close 24/7 where ever they are and help propagate relationships, friendship.....and i think it could be a new communicating device like an iphone or something that boast of new things....
