As awful as that knock-off is, it does illustrate why Apple tries to keep upcoming product details so close to the hip...
My ex was kind of (in)famous for saying, "let's get some Jap food...", but what she always meant was Chinese food...
Yeah, there's a bit of common ignorance here when it comes to the separation of those cultures.
Ebay for sure. I remember there were a few stores in San Fran at the pier where they were selling all kinds of clones.
Which cultures? The one that believes in dragons or the one that believes in dragons?
Well if you're going to rip somebody off, you might as well do a miserable job of it and get yourself laughed at.
Still, the product manager in me is pretty amazed that they were able to put all this together and so quickly. With those resources at their disposal, I'm a little surprised they don't have more amazing crap coming out their ears.

That looks... Horrid!
It seems the leaks have given the fakers an early advantage.
Original is undoubtedly best!

It reminds me of this story a friend told me about his boss where he said that the food in Mexico City wasn't real Mexican food and the food over in their small in Illinois was.
Either way, this knock off looks so cheap. The font would make my eyes bleed.
This phone has on the go TV. Thats one feature that makes it better than the iPhone. Apple should look into it.

I wonder... Will those Apple legal big-wigs do a "cease and desist" on the Chinese counterfeit market?
What's that? No! But what about the other people who, oh I dunno, stumble upon items in a bar!
Oh, that's right, they'd have to shut down China, and that would mean they'd loose out on cheap labour and have their profit $$$ impacted. And besides, China wouldn't let that happen. They'd more than likely flex some sovereign-fund cash and buy the USA. What's that? They already have? Oh yeah, thanks Wall Street!
Oh well, one rule for some, other rules for others...

Actually, confusing foreign cultures is a part of american culture
I'll go beyond and state that Star Trek always get's the wrong asian for the role.
The telescopic TV antenna is what makes this totally awesome.
Actually not so long ago mobile phones had these kind of antennas for cellular, let alone TV...
The one that believes that deception is everyday business practice and the one that doesn't.
