I found a cool website selling cheap chinese fake phones. iPhones, Samsungs, Sony's etc all copied shamelessly. The funny thing is (to me anyway) is that you can get an iPhone running android slight_smile so for a laugh I've ordered one....

Now I'm not expecting anything special, in fact I'm not especially expecting it to work (so I won't be disappointed) but a dual SIM GSM/Wifi/GPS device you can't go wrong and I can't wait to see the look on all my apple fanboy mates faces when they see it......

"The CCK says the move is to protect consumers from substandard phones, safeguard mobile payment systems and prevent crime"
