Hiphone Iphone clone

Has anyone on this forum got or seen anything about this Hiphone.
It's suppost to be the closest clone of an iphone yet and was wondering of you xda-devs have came across one in the flesh so to speak.....
http://www.live25.co.uk/content/say-hello-hiphone
Thanks

EWW thats ugly i dont liek it

Coders and developers needed!
NOW!For all you Hiphone Iclone users there is hope come visit and support us at http://hiphonepro.freeforums.org and spread the word so we can get the developers to listen.
This thing has so much potential!

I wonder if the developers here might help us find out the mysterys of this phone and crack it open for development the phone is excelent but the firmware is limited and undeveloped it has alot of potential to surpass the iphone with just about anything the developer wants to add

Hahaha this thing looks so stupid
It looks as if someone build a foamphone like those foamfingers people use in stadiums and what not.

Don't get it, I am sure it has lead in it.

The Americans have a big thing about lead used in products at the moment, im talking about trace amounts of lead that don't mean anything but they have blown it all out of proportion, so for example my nokia 6300 has a chromed 4 way navigation button, in the manual it says dont put it next to your skin for prolonged periods due to lead content.
it is basically scaremongering to get the US public to stop buying products imported from china

I know I was being facetious.
I am sure all phones have lead, especially on the boards and chips inside, it was a joke.

I may come across that way.
Although I have spent the majority of my life in the states, I have spent a significant amount of time in the UK.
I lived in Southampton for a job until I was made redundant the moved back and still travel there now on business.

I live in China and this kind of Chinglish is everywhere, I love it. There is a second-hand market near my apartment with a huge sign reading "Chicken-hawk Fun Market" with a picture of an old man holding a teenage boy's hand....it's almost like they do it on purpose

Why would someone do anything with this phone, don't promote it, there's about as much potential in this phone as the one pictured above.

I am rich (software)

can some make this ridiculous SW (misspellings and all) for our devices, pleeaaaaase.
[sarcasm]i would love show-off this mockware to all the of those who aren't as rich as me.[/sarcasm]

eight people actually bought it? I guess that means we have eight CONFIRMED idiots on this planet.

wonder how many unconfirmed
i suspect it's mind boggling

LOL. I saw this on giz. I was ROFL'ing for like 5 minutes. And did you guys read about the dude who "accidentally" bought it? LOL

NO... We have more than 8 idiots. You have to include ALL THE APPLE STAFF who approved it in the first place. They probably only took it off when the 8 idiots complained and demanded their refund for the $1000 they spent.

This definitively looks like nice piece of software. I hope someone can develop such a useful and good looking application for our Windows Mobile devices. Otherwise, i might seriously reconsider buying an iPhone.
P.S.:
Congrats to developer of this original app. Nice way of earning few thousands $$ for few seconds of work. Way to go, good thinking!
And all this just proves that iPhone is just a toy for really rich people and true high-tech work of art only for idiots.

"I am rich" for Windows Mobile
Thanks to Julien we, WM users, finally have the chance to try this great app.
It looks like it's still in development. It's not fullscreen yet, but it's still free, so if you want to try this fine piece of software, now's the time.
Download here

YYYYYYEEEEESSSSSS! I just saw it here:
DL'd it and immediately ported it to my "iPhone"

i am, though, disappointed that the 'deserv' was spelled "correctly." argh, oh well. it's well worth the $2,000.00 i donated for this little gem.

Well, I guess it is still in development so it has some minor issues. I'm sure that fullscreen and misspelling will be added as soon as possible. But this is promising start and we will soon be as sophisticated as iPhone users. I also think that many iPhone users will migrate to WM devices since this app is no longer available in Apple's App Store, so we can expect at least few tousands new xda users in next few days.

I think the number of confirmed idiots on the planet is more like the total number of people who bought an iPhone.
Oops! I said the quiet part loud again!

600 per cent jump puts Android ahead of iPhone

APPLE fans scoffed when the press said it was an "iPhone killer".
Now Google's smartphone operating system Android looks to have lived up to the hype.
Research firm Gartner reported today that Android's share of the smartphone market grew by more than 600 per cent in the past year.
In the third quarter of last year, Android accounted for just 3.5 per cent of the market.
This year it's got 25.5 per cent.
That puts it ahead of Apple, Microsoft and the makers of the BlackBerry.
And to add insult to injury, those three all saw their market shares slide rather than grow over the past 12 months.
Gartner said Android's takeover was especially prominent in North America, the heartland of Apple fandom.
The firm said that in the third quarter of 2010, more than 20 million handsets running Android were sold worldwide.

I think it's because people tend to stop being stupid...

Its because the iPhone is only on AT&T. If it was on every carrier, more people would have iPhones, including me.

true as either way.Apple will understand but too late for him when android eat it away

You see that chunk taken out of the Apple logo? Android did that
Now if SPB would hurry up and release MS5 for consumers I might consider getting an android phone next

Totally agree with both those statements.

Ok. For the first time i also was amused by that apple but only after 10minutes of entertainment i just lose hope to find something more as htc. So apple might never be my test for the long time

Motorola's cavalier attitude will have them banned in the U.S. Does anyone even care?

http://m.engadget.com/default/artic...microsoft-patent/&category=classic&postPage=1
Unlike apple, Microsoft gave them plenty of chances. Only Motorola can be blamed, not like they were releasing anything revolutionary anyway.

Meh...w/ that said, the Razr (thinnest) and Razr MAXX (longest battery life) aren't revolutionary to you? Minus the locked BL's I still say the Maxx is one of, if not the best phone out currently overall.

I don't find either advance to be a game changer, now if they made a small battery with that much charge or a thin phone that retained durability I'd understand.

What's Motorola?

I don't see that lasting long. Google going to lay some smack down on Microsoft with it's new patient portfolio.

I'm anxious to see what Google does once they are in full swing with Motorola. I'm sure they will top the razr somehow.

It's not Apple vs. Google so..
No. Nobody cares.

These general patents are bull****. Scheduling ameeting from a mobile device?
What are we going to find out next? Microsoft holds the patent on using a finger as an input device on a touchscreen?

Size doesn't matter, it's what's in the portfolio that counts.

And Nokia's is independently on par with Motorola's.

Nope, we don't/won't care. Superior android devices will continue to come out. Android will continue to flourish. People will continually buy more and more android devices while having not even hearing of windows phone.
Once again you post some flame bait, its windows phone vs android with a disguised title. I give you a 2/10 on the troll.

Oh, Motorola! I know them.
Man you people are mean, How can you all not care about the company that started the "DROID" evolution?
It because of them, Android was put into mainstream attention. Anyone remember the old saying -"DROID Does"
I mean, this commercial had to bring back some of the fun memories
Motorola Droid C

Motorola will most likely be singing a different tune once Google flexes the "we own you" muscle a little bit.
In this day and age, I just can't understand a company who doesn't embrace the open spirit of Android development. Developers can help a company so very much if that company will open it's eyes and stop thinking "only" with it's bottom line.

Obviously they'll work it out. Too many $$'s at risk.

These kind of things don't make sense to me. It is so stupid. So if Microsoft wins, then Motorolla will just change 1 small thing in their new phones and move on with life...

I actually had to watch that video to learn about it. Motorola DROID line up doesn't get much play on this side of the world. Still waiting for the fantastic Razr Maxx. By time it gets here, if it gets here, it won't seem so spectacular versus the One X and upcoming GS3. Which is a shame.
Back to topic, I'm sure something will be fleshed out, MS deals more than Apple and with that whole Motorola Xbox ban thing I'm sure MS has some motivation.

I do'nt care, by the way, who cares?

Moto is crazy about everything, I wonder why they are freaking out over some patent.

Ain't that pathetic..

a 4" screen, 4G (LTE) data connection and the ability to have 5 icons in a row. Sounds familiar? It took Apple 5 years and their best minds research to make an SGS 4G...
So who needs to sue who now?

That's the thing about Apple. Their most current success is mostly due to marketing, and not their product. You can give Apple consumers a iPhone 4 (or whatever the previous version is), tell them it's an iPhone 5, and they'll believe you. Not only would they believe you, but they'll swear it's better and pay full price for it. Apple is genius, really, but not ethical or innovative.

They're not the smartest, nor the brightest, but they sure are one hell of an "ARTIST".

If you ask me all these patent suits just show that apple feels very threatened and instead of competing the good ole fashion way they are playing dirty and being little bit**es.

Apple releases software updates for three-year-old phones and has yet to ship a phone with carrier-mandated apps. They were also the first to make a usable touch-based smartphone, without which Android would be nothing more than a BlackBerry clone (remember me?).
They're alright in my book.

Their updates are so minimal even a 3 year old phone can run them. That's a bad thing. Android updates make major changes. And not only that, many of the older iphones run stripped down versions of ios, like how the 3gs can't have siri.

the earpods took 3 years of r&d.

Android fanbois vs. Apple fanbois... ATTACK!
