Keepin' it real fake, part XLII: what if LG's Chocolate was a DAP?

Mebbe your phone is treating you just fine, but you still find yourself lusting after those glowing accents of LG's ultrapopular Chocolate phone. Well never fear, Asia (we'll go out on a limb here and narrow it down to China) totally has your back. The new Sunlike MP611 PMP liberally "borrows" stylings from the LG flagship, but is no slouch on specs: a 2.4-inch QVGA screen, MPEG-4 video playback with external speaker, built-in microphone, USB 2.0, ebook reader and even gaming -- perhaps via Flash Lite. Memory is expandable via miniSD, though we're not sure how much, if any, memory comes standard. We're also digging the 0.39-inch thickness. Too bad all that silly "respect for intellectual property" stuff keeps DAPs like this out of the States.

[Thanks, Steve]

All I had to do was follow the watermark link.
Some quality detective work there, Engadget.

aww come on, it isn't even a phone! ignore copyrights and let us have it over here.

I find the Chinese have great engineering but are lacking good original design. Maybe they need to import some international designers

I would get that to go along side my chocolate, they would look great together and be a nice combo

This is itself a clone of Teclast's C260.

[omnus @ Jan 30th 2007 12:44AM]

It is not a clone... it IS the Teclast c260.

[Wouter @ Jan 30th 2007 7:34AM]

To Wouter: Ummm... yeah. Like I said: this IS the Teclast c260.
