This is a clone unsuccessful because the n900
currently has no rival as regards both the hardware and software, nokia & maemo are a warranty

The camera is sure on the weak side, however analog TV sounds nice.

I would´nt exactly call it a n900 clone,not much alike at all.

This is another Nokla. Nothing new there.

If you see the phone on the second picture, I have bad news for you :D

It's an illegal ripoff, loads of them about.Note the Chinese language support, now why would that be?

As FMS pointed out they often seem to appear under the brand name Nokla (N O K L A) for obvious reasons.

Sweet, I can finally use one of my government coupons and buy a converter box to attach to my cell phone!

I'm amazed by how fast NOKLA is able to bring it's ripoff junk to market.

I actually like the second picture. If the screen swivelled to landscape so I could T9 type while browsing the web in landscape, it'd be my dream mobile device. (I type about 45 wpm with T9)

The fact that they imitate the NOKIA logo (font, uppercase) is enough to have them loose if they get sued by Nokia. Why this didn't happen?

I aslo have seen a nokla N97 (copy, with the same 320x240 res) and a 12 MP (pretended) camera phone. This can do damage to Nokia brand as the phones are cheap and far from the real N87, N900.

This shows 3 things:
1. How important is a brand name to have better sales.
2. How fast the chinese producers are moving.
3. There is no (fast or easy) justice after all.
