09 Oct 09 Palm Pre wanna be shows up out of China
Almost every single phone that receives any amount of hype is bound to get knocked off by some bootleg Chinese handset manufacturer. One phone we haven’t seen knocked off is the Palm Pre, until now, that is.
What you see above is said Palm Pre knock offd that features both a touch screen and slide out QWERTY keyboard. Additionally, it runs the OPhone OS, analog TV, an FM radio and Bluetooth.
Sounds pretty enticing, huh? If you really want such a knock off, it’ll run you right around $90.

13 Jul 09 Hello Kitty iPhone knockoff
Earlier today we reported on a Kindle 2 knockoff done by a Chinese company and thought that would be it today but boy were we wrong. What you see above is the Hello Kitty Phone 3G, an obvious iPhone knockoff branded with everyone’s favorite cartoon kitty.
Not many specs were realsed on this little device but the fact that there is a stock application on such a device makes me chuckle. Then again, maybe there are some respected business people out their with an undying passion for everything Hello Kitty, who knows.
EngadgetMobile reports that this thing costs $99, the exact same price AT&T is currently offering the iPhone 3G for. Ironic? Maybe. Ridiculous? Of course.

13 Jul 09 Amazon’s Kindle 2 gets knocked off
It was only a matter of time before the Chinese knockoff manufacturers turned their head towards the Kindle and it seems that time has come. What you see above is Peking University Founder’s eBook reader that bears a striking resemblance to Amazon’s Kindle 2.
This device will reportedly make use of a SIM card for cellular connection to download Apabi eBooks. While it’s not confirmed, it looks to be sporting an E-ink display similar to that of Amazon’s device.
There aren’t many more details in terms of specs or the UI but we do know that it has a 6″ display and will make its way to Japan by the end of this year.
