iPhone Clones

One of the disadvantages of being a design pioneer like Apple is that so many other companies try to emulate your products. Although technically not a clone since the technology has been around a while people are already comparing the iPhone touch screen to the Onyx device from Synaptics that was demoed at CES. I don't know what crack this guy is smoking as he calls the user interface "spectacular". Did he not see the iPhone demo?

Another blogger can't stop talking about the OpenMoko FIC Neo1973 Smartphone which looks rather iPhonish in principal if not in design. After reading their press releases about how this device has been delayed until later next month, I give this product the vaporware award of 2007.

Wow, talk about trying to take away the thunder with a bugle. Those 2 phones are lame. The big black one is not only big, but the interface was so pathetic, I can't believe that guy said spectacular! Talk about desperately trying to downplay Apple lol!

As for that other oval phone, you are right about vaporware, as they didn't even have a real pic of the phone, only a computer rendtion of what it looks like! Wow, how do these guys think they can say watch out or move over iPhone with stuff like that? Truly sad from the anti Apple club.
