Meizu M8 miniOne Latest Progress (December 2007)

Hendrik

Well, the FCC only belongs to the US. Fortunatelly, the US is not the world. Therefore Meizu can build a M8 and sell it in China and doesn't need to think about the FCC.

No, it's Windows CE

Even if it was Windows Mobile as you mentioned it ... this piece of software released in 2007.

Have you ever used the TouchFlo? It's running on Windows Mobile and it's great.

There are 3 different worlds in this forum.
The people who are Apple fans
The people who are Meizu fans
The people inbetween who do not take any side

I think the third group is the wisest one; people who don't think of the iPhone as the jezusPhone or the M8 as the godPhone.

Imgagine: this forum would become flamerless.....

Although the phone is not made in the US the FCC will still have a say in whether or not it will be sold here. (This is why they are having trouble obtaining licenses) However, they won't be too concerned with it as long as it doesn't cross the line with any of the major FCC no-no's.

That's really funny. They don't need those licenses you said they're having problems acquiring just to show up at FCC. In any case I've seen seveal crappy gadgets getting approved without problem by em.

The licenses they had to acquire are for the regular MP3 playback/winCE/apps/phone they're putting into the M8...

I find it amazing that some people seem to be trying to convince the rest of us that the M8 is not going to work, IT HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED YET, just wait, we will all soon see. Meizu will not release something that is not going to work, their world wide reputation is at stake.

I’m not quite sure what features ‘un-registered’ thinks is missing from WinCE but it is continuously upgraded & 3-party apps. can easily be added.

I personally don’t care if the M8 is better, worse or the same as the iPhone, I don’t want an iPhone. At the least, even without phone features, the M8 may be the best PDA (thinnest, fastest, ...) I will be able to own at the moment, assuming it lives up to it’s specs.

Why would they have trouble getting licenses for all for all that other crap. Tons of companies (both domestic and overseas) do that on the regular and it doesn't take nearly as long.

And I wasnt saying that they need those licenses to show at up at FCC. I was saying that they need FCC approval before they can start ofbatining licenses from any US company (even if it is for MP3 playback/winCE/apps/) because they will be a part of a communicating device that will be sold in the states.

This is not totally true, as there is hardly any GSM (if any at all!?) products being produced any more that do not have 850 or/and 1900 Mhz band to make it useable worldwide (despite where it is being produced or/and marketed), now if the device has any of these bands on the regular GSM network (not talking about the data band(s)) it will require to pass FCC before being able to be launched. Whereas your statement in theory is true in real life chances that this device would be released without 850 or 1900 support is not very likely.

I'm afraid my iPhone will be selling for $299 (if at all) by the time the Meizu comes out my 8GB phone is now being sold for $399 by Apple.

I hope those online scammers who have been "selling" the Meizu phone hasn't scammed all too many people!
