China has it's own iPhone

Seems like China has a new phone in development that looks pretty much like Apple's iPhone with Touch Screen functionality. It is made by a company called Meizu and it is known as M8. It is smaller than Apple iPhone and thus a smaller screen size of 3.3-inches but just about as thin. The screen resolution is higher at 720x480 compared to 320x480 on the iPhone. M8 is powered by ARM11 processor with video codec that supports 720x480 VGA at 30fps.

It runs on Win CE 6.0 OS and has Bluetooth and TV-out functionality. It appears that there are 2 cameras integrated with the back at 3 megapixels and the front at 0.3 mega pixels. It supports both GSM and TD-SDMA network. We will await for more details to be revealed by the developer at this present moment.

iPhone Holder

Incipio didn’t lose any time! They are already promoting an iPhone zipper case. Their upcoming iPhone case will secure your iPhone with a Velcro attachment. The case has a compartment for credit cards and money. There is also a holder for a pen and a stylus. On the left side of the iPhone case, a handy notepad allows you to quickly jot down notes.

This case does not have any kind of “made for iPhone” stamping by Apple. Incipio likes to surf on brand’s hype. They did the same thing just before the Zune came out in November.

Earlier Release Date

ThinkSecret reports on chatter that the iPhone ship date may have been conservative. According to their sources, the iPhone may be shipping as early as April 2007.

Meanwhile, Appleinsider has heard similar buzz of an April launch date.

Introducing the iPhone

iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device.

iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.
