The most known iPhone-look-alike device, Meizu MiniOne, is everything but a pure rip-off. As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t complain owning a single device. Why? Because it rocks!
The MiniOne may not bring the Apple’s multi-touch experience, but other than that, it will bring right about everything else. The device will be powered by Samsung’s fast 533Mhz processor, and will have a 128MB of DDR SDRAM. Large TFT touchscreen should provide a resolution of up to 720×480 — a way more than iPhone can pull. Furthermore, the MiniOne will have two cameras (3 MP at the back and VGA on the front for video calls), Bluetooth and WiFi wireless connectivity options, DMB TV Tuner, video out and support for AVI/MPEG4/WMV playback.
The pricing is where MiniOne really stands out. Apparently, the 4GB version will be retailed for $260, while the 16GB (yes, that’s sixteen) version will be available for $450! Sounds almost unrealistic. Hopefully, I’m wrong. (via: uberphones)

He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
