article published on 7 October, 2009

The formerly Chinese-exclusive Dell Mini 3i Android smartphone is headed to the US, says CrunchGear, with the phone hitting American shores before the end of the year.

You know what's crazy? The fact that so many cellphone makers - including dell, as we all see - are imitating the iphone. That stupid dell phone looks just like the iphone. Why can't cellphone makers just be original and come up with original designs? Why imitate? Those that imitate look very bad, in my judgement.

Looks 2 me as dell tried so hard to copy apple they even left out 3g suppot like the Gen1 ifone. hahha

However im not so sure that everyone is copying apple, HTC had been making phones with that sort of format for a long time.. all apple did was put it in a shiny ipod like case and took away all the buttons and the ability to remove the battery.

In my opinion there are only so many ways you can make a phone. Especially if it's touch screen. So they are bound to be many that look similar. And remember this phone was intended for china so it's not surprising that it's lacking features as other phones sold there are.
