If you recall, Palm PDAs had icons on the home screen as well as a set of soft buttons across the bottom, a touch screen, and rectangular rounded corner case years ahead of the Apple iPhone. <br><br>Also, Windows Mobile devices have had plug-ins (i.e. SPB Pocket PC Plus, SBSH iLauncher) which allowed icons on the Today screen with any background as well. <br><br>I won't argue that the Meizu M8 does not look a lot like the iPhone... I'm just saying there's only so many ways you can design a handheld touchscreen device before they all start looking alike.<br><br>It would be bad news for the handheld industry if Apple even attempts to sue Meizu because where would it stop if they were successful? Samsung for the F700 even though it was displayed before the release of the iPhone? How about the LG Prada? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spoon!!]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 17th 2007 12:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</guid><description><![CDATA[I can't answer for the M8, but I do own an M6 and also a Teclast (chinese) Mp3 player and these players are my choice over the any of dozens (yes dozens) of players I have here (starting with the original Nano and through the new Nano tubby).<br><br>The Meizu and Teclast players I have are original designs and not knock-offs and are as good as anything designed in the USA, Germany, Japan or Korea.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dave]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 16th 2007 11:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</guid><description><![CDATA[What you have now is also a cheap knockoff of other brands: As you know, Meizu and other Chinese sweatshops have been "blatantly" ripping off every imagineable products known to humankind. The victims used to be iRiver, Cowon, Samsung, Sony and other established makes in Asia, but Apple is added to their target list nowadays. Here in Asia, the Chinese are "known to be" some of the "least creative" people on this planet; most Asians look down on the Chinese and most of us think that being called chinese is quite offensive remark. Anyway, "the Chinese need to stop piracy of copyrighted products".]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Truth_hurts]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 17th 2007 1:49AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dear Truth_hurts,<br><br>Your words of deception and your distorted world view disgust me.

Yes they are Chinese, and the Chinese are known for cheap products, but that doesn't mean that everything from there is crap. Meizu have been making MP3 players that are superior (in build quality and feature set) to the comparable iPods while costing less money. Also, I really don't see how they can be worse that past iPods since I know many people that went through between 2-4 iPods in under 2 years time.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Darkest Daze]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 17th 2007 12:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</guid><description><![CDATA[yea, that price is way too high, no matter how many features they're stuffing into it.  not to mention meizu's touchpad technology on the miniplayer is far inferior to the ipod's, so i question how well the touch screen will work on this one.<br><br>still, if it gets released for the $400 price that it needs to be at, people might even think they're getting a discount]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jaalin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 17th 2007 12:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/16/meizus-m8-minione-shipping-january-17th/</guid><description><![CDATA[Interesting... it has taken a long time... for all of this meizu hype, they really haven't been delivering... 16gb? in a pmp yea, but in a phone, you'd use up your battery tryna listen to just 1gb at a time...<br><br>My favorite is still the Digitalrise d718i.. they are a new company, but their iphone version is 1) available, 2) has removeable battery, and memory card slot, plus, it is come in White as well...<br><br><a href="http://www.chinagrabber.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1382&HS=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.chinagrabber.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1382&HS=1</a><br><br>and oh ya, about tha minione, Jan 17 is like right before Chinese New year... even if it does come out before then, the production will be halted for 2-4 weeks....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TJ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 17th 2007 12:46AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
