News about Meizu MiniOne M8

People are talking about the new Meizu's Phone.

Somebody talks it's a copy of Apple's Phone, and others defensors, says that is another phone with another habilities and doesn't have anything similar to iPhone.

It looks that will have six versions of Meizu's Phone, they are specificated bellow:
- 4GB model, without camera
- 4GB model, with camera
- 8GB model, without camera
- 8GB model, with camera

And in a second version:
- 16GB model, with camera and 3G
- 16GB model, with camera and 3G

All phones will be running Microsoft Windows CE 6, customizated to Meizu's Phone. But reading a lot of articles, since last February when I read an article about the possible iPhone "exterminator" (and a propabale clone of iPhone), I still have questions about prices and realese around the world.
I read in that article (http://www.meizume.com/showthread.php?t=2363):

"All We Know About the Meizu MiniOne

• The Meizu M8 MiniOne is still under development.
• It is due to be released in late 2007 to early 2008.
• What the current Meizu M8 MiniOne specifications are.
• Meizu are currently having problems acquiring necessary cellphone licenses in time, and that they may release a non-phone M8 where cellphone functions can later be added with an add-on.
• The current pricing for the 4, 8 and 16GB models are 2000, 2500 and 3500 CNY respectively. That is approximately 260, 330 and 460 $USD."

I've read an article with prices of cells without cameras. They were always cheaper than that others prices above.
Me (and the others) want to know:
- What is the real price of all models?
- Will MiniOne avaiable in another countries?
- And if MiniOne has the production only in Chine, could people export that to othes countries?

Thats all!

I cant imagine 3G GSM modul as an add on. Because if you buy M8 no cell phone version and you will wont a mobile version later, you will have to make a hole for the video calling in it so I cant imagine service men saying : just a moment I will take my Black & Decker machine and you will have new 3G phone from your Meizu M8... :eek:

Anyway I hope there will be no problems in distribution in EU and we will be able to buy this marvelous machine around New Year...

zekrioca, if there is no English language in M8, they might as well not produce the player.

wiivader

meizu must just release it without the phone hardware....

iversonjack

wiivader, you can find information on that in the new posts about Meizu M7 - which might replace M6SE, which is basically M8 without the phone. Sounds confusing.

I'm sure someone posted this somewhere on this forum, but unfortunately we're not getting a M8 phone, but something more similar to the new Ipod touch... we're getting screwed... no phone capabilities whatsoever...except in china....I too was broken hearted... but I still want the Ipod touch killer the M8!!!! here's the link http://www.anythingbutipod.com/archi...one-for-us.php

I'm sorry guys...

If Meizu is going to lunch M8 without GSM I will buy some competiotion product. I am sorry for that, but I was looking forward it so much...
Maybe HTC Touch or something similar based on Win Mobile 6
