Now I don't know anymore, this one, or the winmo/iphone/magic dust phone that meizu made. There's something to be said for a phone that uses a competitor's platform more advanced than the one it uses itself (M8-CE6 / winmo 6.5 CE5.2)
I love the detail in the second pic, showing the possibility for integrated functions.
Clock, circle with dot..., Heart rate, battery, wireless? Ha, how much easier wearable computing would be with this, coupled with a nice ocular implant/lenses.
I wonder if it charges with usb, or if it's rather fuel-cell or steorn orbo based.
Funny things aside, I love the detail of the soft felt hand, and can imagine cool alternative materials you could swap. A future full fingered version, maybe even more than 5 would be awesome too.

If we manage to find a high res foto it shoud be easier to confirm!
"My father-in-law is heading back to school in the spring and wants a laptop for Christmas. The only catch is their budget is around $400 and he does not want a netbook. He's not very "tech savvy" at all and doesn't need a hoss of a machine (not that $400 could get you one). We would like to get it for him as soon as possible and would love some input."
