I might be out of the loop, but if I haven't seen it --it's new to me.

It looks very much like the real deal:

And looks like it in operation too (mostly):

Reminds me of the "Roleks" watches you can find on the streets in New York.

Am I the only one who sees that poor little knock-off processor chugging along trying to imitate the UI?

The bit with the guy trying to pinch-zoom the photo had me rolling.

I found myself looking at the knock-off sneakers/trainers and getting the same uneasy feeling that the phone gives me.

That doesnt look real to me, differing delays between finger taps and response.

The problem is that someone will buy this "hiphone" and think it is an actual "iphone". It is junk so they will think the iphone is junk. Apple would be well within their right to seek an end to its production.

I agree. Have you ever tried to talk to a log? They're horrible conversationalists. No point in having speed dial button to talk to something so boring.

Sorry, I've been drinking.
