Android didn't make this product. Android is simply an operating system (and a pretty amazing one at that). Sanxi ripped Apple's product design and simply put Android on there as the operating system.

Dell Streak run's Android, HTC Evo 4G runs Android - but neither are clones of any Apple products.

and you mention it's only 150 dollars with 64GB built-in???



I only have 2 questions..

1. where can I buy one
2. Why is iPad so expensive at 800 dollars with similar storage?]]>Jun 16th 2010 9:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/An iPad is not just 64gb and a screen]]>Jun 16th 2010 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/For one thing Apple built their shit from he ground up. From hardware to software.
Android is free, duh and the parts on that kirf are off the shelf. So the cost to make it is almost nothing. Now what about support? Ain't none! It is a throw away product.
Them Android tablets have done nothing but kill their profit margins.
The makers of that crap don't even make enough money to tell you to fuck off.

For realz. How is it that when I see all of these iPad Kirf products I prefer them over the actual iPad?

Oh yeah, ports. Options. All of those non-Appleian things]]>Jun 16th 2010 10:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/
to 2.

get an ipad in your hands and this kirf, and there is your answer!

btw. 800$ for an (one,1) ipad? there are many models, starting at somewhere around 400 bucks so it depends.

so why is a (any) bmw much more expensive than cars from chang feng motor? both are using a round steering wheels and the windows are in equal measure transparent.

there is a saying like "there are no stupid questions", but this kind saying is imho totally wrong. :)]]>Jun 16th 2010 10:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/Jun 16th 2010 10:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/
Heh, but that's the classic argument around these parts. ;)

Take any product, list its technical specifications on a piece of paper, compare, and decide which is better. Make no actual tests, do not consider the quality of the hardware, touch screen, or make attempt to use the interface.

I can't imagine buying any product just by its list of technical specifications, yet that seems all the rage with the gadget crowd. ]]>Jun 16th 2010 10:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/
for $150 though, its definitely something to investigate. and hey, if it dies youre only out $150. could also be something great to play around with and see what kinda fun 'rooting' you can do the damn thing.

> An iPad is not just 64gb and a screen

Nope. It is also an underpowered CPU and GPU that needs AirVideo to transcode for it.

Yes.

AirVideo is ridiculously good. I hope you're not knocking it. Letting the PC do the heavy work of decoding the video is a fantastic way to conserve battery life if you want to watch movies away from home. I have close to a TB of media on my PC that I can play off my phone at any time. That, my friend, is awesome.

Your whole "well polished turd" analogy is stupid. Polish is important in personal tech, not just feature lists. I've owned plenty of devices that could, in theory, do more than what my iOS device does. Those devices now live in a box in my closet, never to be used again. I fully subscribe to the thought that 5 really well done features are better than 10 half-baked features. I also realize that this type of thinking is not the MO for many people that comment on this site though. ]]>Jun 16th 2010 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/16/keepin-it-real-fake-android-based-ipad-knockoff-gets-unboxed-f/
its not like i assume a huge trend will happen with it, the product specs arent amazing by any means...but i mean come on, its just kinda fun to see what you can pull off with a device or what you can turn it into or run on it or just play around with its codes.
