That's not how innovation happens.

Innovation means taking what's out there and building upon it, adding something from yourself.

And this here is just a quick clone done to for some quick money (they hope). That's not useful, it reduces the efforts of the original teams at Apple who had to come up with the concepts and design on their own.]]>Oct 21st 2007 2:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/Oct 21st 2007 4:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/Oct 21st 2007 4:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/

1) The device is much smaller than the iPod. About as high as the iPod is wide.
2) Its nice to have a touchscreen. This one being 'simple-touch', not multi-touch.
3) It is very basic in all respects.
4) I think nobody will mistake it for an iPod. The only thing that makes it look like an iPod are the icons.]]>Oct 22nd 2007 10:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/keepin-it-real-fake-part-xci-loomax-ii-touch-isnt-an-ipod-d/Maybe Apple doesn't see it as "respectable" to use someone else's design, but this is silly. If this product is really that bad, then probably it won't be popular, and will die. If people are in the market for it, and it does well, Apple should compete using their own low end version for a chunk of market share.
I think it's unethical to enforce monopoly on a design because you hit it first; it's not like the design transcends us common beings' knowledge, and Apple is communication with ETs. It's thin, big touch screen, shiny, and has a full list of modern tech standards. That is all, even if it's of great quality and worth the price.]]>Nov 5th 2007 10:44AM
