Just after few hours I pointed out the latest iPod Nano ripoff, an Alibaba trade lead of exactly same item hit my mailbox. A manufacturer from Shenzhen, China had sent me a message about its clone iPod Nano.
According to the information provided, the fake iPod Nano is built on Action’s ATJ-2085 solution. It features Samsung’s NAND chips, which varies from 256MB to 1GB. You can get it for as low as US$35 ( or maybe lower) if you could make volume purchase.
I believe you may see more and more this kind of ripoff soon as this model will be the so-called public model. Most of the manufacturers are able to clone it!
It seems that MSC is making itself in trouble. Look at its latest MP3 player, Dino A. It’s totally a rip off of Apple’s iPod Nano. Not even the case and button layout are similar, the dimension of MSC Dino A (90 × 40 × 7.8mm) is also almost exactly same as an iPod Nano (89 × 40 × 7mm). The features are quite general, not even worth to tell!

Let see how Apple reacts on it!
