If you want to start the knock-off name calling based on small similarities then you could say the iPhone is a knock-off of HTC’s smartphones, which are a knock-off of candy bar phones, which are a knock off of cordless phones. It just goes on and on. It’s called design trends. Touchscreen phones are a design trend that has been around longer than the iPhone via PDA smartphones.
Checked it out, shame it doesn’t run on a typical OS platform like Windows or Symbian. Come on Samsung, that is mega important if you want to hit the smartphone business – don’t get too hung up on producing iphone clones. Apple will slowly give us the technology and style that no-one else will beat, so they’ve won that one. Again, Samsung have just not checked all the boxes, do they use focus or consumer groups at all, any market research or what?!!. I’ll have to wait for the Samsung i780 now or for the new SE p3i?
I think you mean “me likey”, not “me likely”
Who gives a flying frog about the typo, I’m just thrilled to hear about something other than the iphone!
Where have I seen that design before – oh yeah – it’s an iPhone knock off.
Yeah and the iPhone has a tangible keyboard too!!. Stop comparing everything to the iPhone, this is not the same…
Got anymore details besides pics?
Nothing that wasn’t already covered months back, HC. Check the link for all the deets. I just like it for it’s haptic feedback and QWERTY keyboard.
There’s a possibility that it might come to the US, but I won’t hold my breath.

Wow, it looks like a querty keyboard raped an iPhone and they had retarded offspring… Yikes
Does it have a decent Calendar/Diary function to keep track of appts etc..?
I currently use the SE p990i and it works well, but did prefer my old Palm m515, but sadly that was PDA only.
And Yes, iphone isn’t all that and thanks for discussing something else.
Wow. Maybe next time they could add a little larger screen instead of those fancy logos.
