Imitated iPad - it's cheaper and bigger
May 17th 2010 23:04
A sample of a "shanzhai" or imitated reproduction of iPad running Microsoft Windows is seen inside a computer shopping mall in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen April 21, 2010. Hefty and thickset with three USB ports and a more rectangular shape than the original, this knock-off with iPad aspirations, which runs a Windows operating system, looks more like a giant iPhone. It costs 2,800 yuan ($410), making it slightly cheaper than the iPad's $499-$699 price tag. Just three weeks after the global launch, bootleg versions of Apple Inc's hot-selling iPad tablet PCs have begun showing up on the shelves of online and real-world shops in piracy-prone China.
