The Morestar MP270 looks awfully familiar

By Dave Caolo

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, consider the Apple design team swept off their feet. The Morestar MP270 is a digital music player that features a 7 color display (128x32), MP3 and WMA support, an FM radio and recorder, voice recorder, 12-hour battery life, USB2.0 data transfer...and a striking resemblance to the iPod shuffle. The MP270 comes in 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB and 1GB configurations. No word on pricing or availability, but that's not really a concern, as I imagine it won't be long before Apple legal puts the smackdown on Morestar.

However, I have to say I kind of like the idea of a shuffle with an FM receiver/recorder.
