Cool Chinese candybar or a Nokia Aeon ripoff?

At a first glance, the device pictured above looks like a cool candybar. However, having already seen the Nokia Aeon concept as well as the similarly-shaped USB key, we must warn you it’s another ripoff device we’re dealing with here. As a matter of fact, aside from the awkwardly similar shape, the unnamed Chinese phone even uses the same (or very similar) blue/violet colors.

In case you care about the specs, there’s the 2.2″ 260K color 176×220 screen, VGA camera, stereo Bluetooth support, stereo speakers and the microSD memory slot. As for the size, the fake Aeon measures 110x48x15 mm and weighs 85 grams… More photos follow after the jump.

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

    I don’t think Nokia ever actually created the Aeon concept themselves, it was just an entry in some design competition they ran or something. They merely published it. And it’s not like they were ever gonna build it or anything.
