Keepin' it real fake, part CLXXXI: Sumsang Omnia can't fool anyone

Oh, the horror! You know, Samsung's Omnia isn't terribly unique, but we never thought we'd see it knocked off and disrespected like this. Clearly created for use on China Mobile (and by fools who don't actually inspect the devices they buy), the Sumsang Omnia is a GSM smartphone that sports a 2.4-inch 320 x 240 resolution display, an MP3 player, a 13 megapixel camera (right...), USB connectivity, a couple of games, a microSD card slot and a sure-to-be-counterfeit version of Windows Mobile running the show. Of course, this abomination will only set you back a buck twenty, and hey -- at least this version comes with dual SIM slots!

[Thanks, Derek]

He probably meant CXXCI
But the way Engadget wrote it is still acceptable: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_numerals#IIII_vs._IV

SUMSANG may not quite beat Mapple on name alone, but this exists in real "fake" life....

The Chinese have the techno-satire game on lock.

i bought a beautiful sumsang but it doesn't work in France. Je suis dégouttéééé!
il coutait 50 Euros, je croyais avoir fait une bonne affaire!
I'm sorry, i'm not very good in English!
