As far as I know, the GPS-Phone beat everyone to the market as the first iPhone 4 imitation, but it is a lookalike only, whereas the ePhone 4GS is a genuine fake that illegally uses Apple’s logo and probably falsified “16Gb” inscription on the back.

On the exterior, the Pandora Box is a virtual carbon copy of last generation’s Mac Mini. Apple has priced its new unibody model outside of the low end, but for budget HTPC shoppers who do not mind doing some work to get OS X running on the duo-core Intel Atom 330 processor (1.6 GHz, 4 threads) and NVIDIA’s Ion (GeForce 9400m) graphics, then take a look at a pretty little wannabe that is set for full HD video.

Star Wars nerds, better start pinching pennies for the event because each piece is valued at between $3,000 to $15,000, far greater than most action figures and comics. More »

From Htcyou: It looks like an Apple iPad but is a less than half the price and probably half as useful. Watch the aPad - not to be confused with the iPed that has been receiving plenty of press in Asia - a 7-inch Android 1.5 tablet with wireless and GPS in action to determine if it is worth your hundred bucks.

Just in time to capitalize on the fervor stirred by Apple’s Chinese iPad launch, the iPed is enclosed in an iPad lookalike case, which comes in an iPad replica box. Cannot pony up over $500 USD for an iPad? The iPed is just ¥9,600. More »
