Mom and pop sell crap like that, it might be limited to e-bay at first but it will soak into those stores eventually. i seen this guy trying to sell people fake iPhones as the real deal. i had to tell a few that actually bought one that you just paid $200+ for a fake. Sad
One tried to argue that it was real. but that's when my friend shown them his iPhone (boy was they pissed, but they can only be pissed off at themselves for being that stupid).
I'm waiting for an antenna that is attached to a helium balloon feeding out from a little electric fishing reel inside the iPhone. No battery needed, simply let it out during thunder storms or across power wires.
One thing Google isn't afraid of is the iPhone, or it's knockoffs. And I'll take the design of most any of the newer google phones over the god-awful upcoming iPhone design. I'll also take the ability to use the phone on any network other than ATT.
A counterfeit/copy that is released before Apple even releases their own product. More ammunition for Apple's attorneys when they eventually file a civil suit against Chen/Gizmodo/Gawker.
(Yes, I realize there have been other leaks. But none of those leaks would have been considered nearly as reliable if not for the initial revelations by Gizmodo.)

That made me chuckle....
Guess we are going back in time now
Oh yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if Steve showcases an entirely different backup version of the new iPhone.... Would really suck for all these manufacturers that have already started making cases for the new iPhones. Guess there will still be a market for them with this knock-off iPhone.
SJ may have said it himself or someone else but I think it goes like this, "Amazing how so many people can be profitable without a sense of style."
Wait until you've actually seen a production model up close and personal before you make that sort of judgment; you'll likely change your mind. Apple may make the occasional product that turns out to be a flop, but nowadays, it never makes anything that's ugly.
F#@& you Gizmodo!
... Good job on the leak!... Great Job on the Leak... Deserve to disappear, go bankrupt... Now we all understand why Apple is making their products a secret...

Dude: I would love to see your home interior... Care to share pics with us?

We cannot even get Flash to work on Apple, or AT&T to work well without dropped calls, so..... maybe this phone isn't much worse. And it has an Antenna, so maybe works well in NY & SF...... along with the removable battery to make up for Flash Battery Drain....
+1 Insightful
It will also take the approach that every popular linux distribution has taken so far: Cheap windows-esque graphics/UI. Not recommended for the visually oriented.
the chinese, again
I ponder, when are these bloody ghengis khans going to counterfeit my feces? Dirty, opportunistic, animal-abusing, immoral slime! Of course, there are exceptions to the rule (e.g. very proper Chinese who oppose cruelty, copycat-like essence and other vile properties that make up the bulk of south-eastasian mentality).

Yes, it appears they can
Yes, here's a list:
abuse tigers, leopards, dogs, cats, rhinos, apes, snakes and any imaginable life form that has the misfortune of sharing this planet with the them. Any but their own. If they had the technology, they could even dare an attempt of enslaving superior races just as they've been enslaving superior animals.
