Chinese iPod knockoffs

This isn't the first blatant and bad iPod knockoff, and it won't be the last. But I still get such a kick out of seeing these, I just had to share.

This "ipod" sports a badly fitted usb connector, a poor imitation of the iPod UI, says "Designs by Appls California" on the back, has 512MB of memory and plays "AMV," MP3 and MP4 files. The iPod nano-style box it comes in (1st gen, natch) is apparently a better fake than the "ipod" itself.

It can be yours for only 12 Euro if you find yourself wandering through an electronics store in China.

Tip of the Day

To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.
