Send in the iClones: Philips Xenium x800
Another day, another iClone! This one comes courtesy of the fine folks at Philips, and Gizmodo shares the duplicative details:
PC World China is saying that the upcoming Xenium x800 will have an "e2e" screen— that's an edge-to-edge touchscreen, apparently. From the photos it looks like it's got an orientation sensor, Wi-Fi, a browser, a curved design and a bevelled metal edge. Sounds a little familiar?
It sure does. It sounds just like the Samsung Instinct, Nokia Tube, RIM (and RIM), and HTC Touch Diamond, and every other device trying to be the iPhone in imitative form rather than revolutionary spirit.
How about iCloning that?

I'd be embarrassed to work for a company who markets its products on the basis that they look like something someone else has done. Have they no shame?
