Yes, the Craig has a resistive screen. The advantage the capacitive screen has is multitouch. The only time the lack of multitouch really bothers me is using the browser. For most other purposes, it's a non-issue. It's the screen that makes the difference in cost. If you put a capacitive screen on the Craig, you'd be making it a $200 device, at least. For that cost differential, I can definitely deal with the resistive screen.
Once someone gets the new device and heads over to SlateDroid with the firmware, it'll be possible to hack together a version of it for the older version -- one with the Market on it, etc.
