How long till the full wrath of teh Steve descends?

I mean, there's 'influencing' a design and then there's just plain copying.

Appy polly logies if it's already been discussed.....

It's been discussed loads already. And Steve's wrath has no doubt been unleashed.

They could have at least moved the design on a little - eg. changed colours.

Good grief, companies can't even design their own stick with memory in it!

It looks kinda big in those pics.


Plus, I can't make out any 'phones.

Nevertheless, it just screams flattery.

They didn't even try to make that look different.

I'm glad they changed the name from "Super Shuffle." They did change the design a bit, but it's still a big rip-off.

So far this has been vaporware...no way to order, no way to get it....

Wow... that's ... cheaper than copying someone's SAT's.

Good sign

Very good sign.

people don't make fake watches etc for no reason.

 

[pretentious]

Has anyone stolen the most obvious piece of the iPod, the scroll-wheel?

With as much as the iPod as dominated the market, I figured by now someone out there would at least come up some kind of knock-off with that.

As far as i'm aware, this is a repost, but to a different link.
Wow, if this comes out that company is not going to have a leg to stand on!
Sure, all memory sticks look similar, but that is so blatant!

yeah, they really didn't even try on this one.
