It can't be an Apple phone - wheres the box, it says that it "resembles" it in the auction. Fake as fake can get!

Thats clearly displaying a Sony Ericsson interface, I can't see Apple using that. Nice try though.

This is clearly not an Apple Phone. The screen is too small to be a touchscreen, and the scrollwheel symbols would never be black on white. The charger is not a standard Apple one. Again, it seems to be running a Sony Ericsson OS. Clearly homemade, but hey: nice try!

No way... it's only dual band, that's a Samsung charger, screen is too small, it doesn't play h.264, the wheels aren't the right colors and the interface doesn't look like Apple... maybe SE like someone said above. Nice try.

First, they bring in the fake (or clone) iPod, then this. What so "great" about those clone item is that they are so badly done that you can tell whether this crap is the real deal or not.

The biggest slap in the face is the memory card slot. Rofl. the iphone will have an hd like all the ipods have.

quote"This is a rare gadget to find and resembles the popular Apple iPod." take note to the word "resembles" not is the real phone and it doesnt have any logos of or iconic half eaten apple

Hell, my Razr V3i can play music AND it supports iTunes, I'll bet my house that this Sony-Ericsson can't. And also, I don't think anywhere on the page does it say its new in box, or even working for that matter. Watch, this'll end up in the 1000's of dollars and that retard is going to receive a peice of junk. HA

[...] There has been much speculation thus far on the upcoming iPhone, but somebody apparently managed to snag one of these hybrid cellphone/MP3 player devices during Christmas and is now offering it up for sale on eBay at a wallet crunching $500. What do you get for plonking down that amount of dough? Apparently, not very much. Half a grand will net you a 1.8″ touchscreen display, a 2 megapixel camera, a microSD memory card slot, USB connectivity, and built-in MP3 playback capability. Of course, there are more reasons to believe that this is a hoax instead of the real thing, but who can really tell these days? Do leave a comment on what you think about it. [Tech E-Blog] [...]
