It seems like everyone wants a piece of the iPhone action. Of course, with all of the hype around the iPhone, there are plenty of knockoffs. The guys over at equinux have managed to get their hands on a rather decent-looking clone.

They were impressed by how closely it did resemble the real deal, in looks only of course. The “iPhone” does have some decent features like a 2MP camera, 2 SIM card slots, 64MB of built-in memory and a 256MB SD card. You also get a WAP browser, and even an extra removable battery. Sounds like this thing will really give the real thing a run for its money.

Are you also worried about trying to type on the iPhone with your clumsy fingers? Fear not, this forgery gives you a stylus to work with. It’ll be just like using a Windows Mobile device. Only worse. I’m sure that none of you out there are actually desperate enough to buy a knockoff. After all, we’re only weeks away from the launch. I’ll leave you with these wonderful genuine pictures of the fake iPhone.










Thanks Steve!
