Sciphone: More on these iPhone clones

So it comes with GPRS connectivity, but yeah if you’re looking for a phone that works for about USD $100 — it even has an extra removable battery — then you might want to check out a few of iPhone clones that are coming out. There’s a WiFi version of the same clone for twice the price which is still a steal considering the fact that it even has dual SIM capabilities.
Other than those I mentioned, it has everything the iphone has and probably even more coz it comes with an extra battery, you can download Apple apps in it, comes with 1 GB memory card, it’s dual sim (put in your Globe, Smart and/or Sun sim if you wish!), comes with a leather Apple case and did I tell you you’ll save around P38,000 with it too (you can already buy a decent laptop with that money or maybe even go to Hong Kong or Thailand or Bangkok!)? So yeah, I got myself one. I’ve yet to discover if I’m gonna regret it, coz like I told you I’m no geek. But for P5k, it’s already very much worth it.
The unit is called a Sciphone, and it looks hot. There is something oddly alluring with phones like these because there’s such a big community built around it. Interesting, actually.
