Teclast T59 concept design looks vaguely familiar
Meizu apparently isn't the only Chinese manufacturer courting concept designs from its users -- and ripping off the iPhone with vigor while it's at it. Teclast's actual upcoming T59 might very well look nothing like these concept renders here, and obviously some of the stylings and specs here are a bit far fetched. But if Teclast can indeed deliver a Windows CE-based 3G device with GPS, WiFi and FM, along with a VGA screen, neato secondary display and other assorted hawterness -- all while dodging Apple legal, of course -- then we promise not to get too hung up on certain familiarities to other products on the market.

i'd say its ripping more off the LG prada, but then again, there are only so many ways to make an all touch screen phone

i guess any time a phone manufacturer makes something that is sleek-looking from now no it will be considered an iPhone ripoff...?
lame

Umm, how is this a iPhone ripoff? It looks nothing like it. Let's not forget that the iPhone is a ripoff of designs that have been in South Korea for years now.

Reminds me of my 'ol Sony Clie PEG-TH55, but with much less bezel.
The whole "rip off" thing has become tiresome.

I agree, iphone is a natural progression for a touch screen device. I can honestly say when I thought of my ideal device it was an all screen touch screen device with buttons on the back and no keyboard. And this was 3 years ago.
