Keepin' it real fake, part XLIII - Samsung YP-K5 + LG Chocolate = CMtech K7

It wasn't long ago we asked what if LG's Chocolate was an audio player, but now we're back to ask what if LG's Chocolate had an ill-fated Romeo and Juliet-romance with arch-rival Samsung's YP-K5? You might wind up with a lovechild somewhat similar to CMtech's conveniently named K7, a 4GB player (with FM radio) that loses the K5's girthy speaker, and adds karaoke support with TV-out.

Swing Batta Swing.... indeed

That looks really cool, I wonder how much one of these goes for and what service it runs.

It's not a phone, it's a music player + karaoke.

Why do you insist on saying that if a device is black with red touch-sensitive buttons then it's a rip off of the LG Chocolate? I had an Olympus M:robe 100 several YEARS ago that had the same exact design and functionality... Way before the Chocolate came out and caused all this commotion...

It's not actually claming to be either, the only closeness is the key design which as Kerunt points out the chocolate 'learnt' a lot from the M:robe and a K in the name like Samsung K series players.

That doesn't look much like either device mentioned. Engadget likes to make everything look like iPods too.. sounds like a one track mind to me.
