the meizu m8, without the 640x480 screen as nothing more than the "old" 1st iphone version.
just maybe the price.
The iphone v2 price is good , but you have to still pay expensive contract each month : 50euro in france and 70usd are the minimun to pay to get this phone to an affordable price.
hobbsy101 are sure to get this phone for 200usd and pay each month a new contract, concardantly not !
But i think iphones v2 without contract could cost 400 usd and 500 usd for 8 and 16gb. ( apple has just reduce the ipod touch price , they don't want to concurrence themselves

, for example a ipod touch 16gb cost about 300 usd now , for 200usd more you could get an iphone 16gb, my analyse could be true)
Now iphones from first generation could be found for 250 euro ( about 400usd )
After waiting and waiting the meizu attraction dissapear... no 3g, no dmb , no gps, the Meizu M8 project was too high for a company like meizu.
The upcoming samsung i900 is for me the better challenger against the iphone2.
I've already sell my iphone but i think i'm going to buy the samsung.
The Htc diamond is pretty cool but, no extensible memory and a smaller screen don't really interest me.
Sorry for all mistakes, i'm french lol
