Looks like the Asians are back at the copycat game. Just wait till Apple legal visits their door.

It appears that this thing take an SD card, so it's not even a hard drive player. No wireless. Lame.

NO WAY, that thing doesn't even touch the iPod Mini... just look at it, what a hunk of Junk!!! On a scale of 1 to 100, it's a -39!

The iPod mini is simply much more elegant then that hack.

No keyboard, no bluetooth, no wireless, no color screen, no network connectivity... All it does is play music!

That's like saying Gateway/Sony/Dell/Toshiba/etc are copying Apple because they make laptops that look kinda similar. It was Apple after all that first made the current layout of a laptop popular (that is, keyboard near the screen, input device in center in front of that).
