The fake Shuffle is new to me. However, isn't the 'fake iPod Nano' the MP4 player that people are interested in?

maybe i dont know just want to let ppl know on this before being cheat by seller that sell as original product...

Wow, its actually quite hard to tell the fake from the genuine at first glance... But of course upon clearer inspection, the difference becomes more noticeable...

the fake 1 only sell RM400++ at here..

the ipod shuffle is so old news edi lar.. i used to sell them tho.. but of course, my buyers know they are fakes at the first place.

hahaha..
but then again... it looks pretty real..

Yup.... The fake i pod nano clone is here to stay.....

1GB for about RM299 ............

Seems like a good deal........

Hehehe, not just you my friend... The US and Europe also dislike them for creating unfair competitive advantage due to the PRC's low prices (especially for labor)...

And also the freaggin' many bootleg stuff that seem to come out from there, in addition to cheap-cost originals!

The nano i'd say its not "fake" but just "lookalike". Its easily distinguishable. But buyers ought to be careful with the shuffles. They're really unsuspecting at first glance...

they r the next biggest industrous country in future....

wif the open policy+cheap labour+abundant of skillful worker+resources

most of the quality not much diff...but sum r really lousy...and there r sum tat really outstanding quality haha...

actaully those fake one is so easy to spot la...
nothin to get excited about...

took this pic at lowyat plaza 2 weeks ago,they actually put 'iPod' on it



sorry for the bad quality,took with my phone

ya .. i saw that fake IPOD player also !!
they nearly cheated my friend! D

Actually they are what we category as S1 Mp3 Player

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S1_MP3_Player

and guess what the lastest firmware name for that type of so called "Ipod nano" It`s "APPLE NANO" version 3.35 somtin i guess.

It`s not an Mp4 Player becoz it can only play u call amv (some sort of mtv codec for china).

P/S: I bought it about Rm300 for 1gb haha so far so good.

yup,
PRC has been working very hard to emerge as an industrial nation an to pull itself out of the slump. besides, they are a strong marketing nation as the demand is high in their country due to high population

yup

erm..
can see this everywhere, but wit the word "ipod" is my 1st time

huh?? cheat ur fren? how cum? they say original n offer cheap price?
hahaha..

Assembled in China

oh yeah, regarding those ipod fakes, AMV means advance media video

i think those who bought the fake one is so apple wannabe lorrrrrrrr..... no offence but i just hate it if they still "show off" like they own a genuine ipod, sure kena laff kao kao.
Its like having to drive a merc on the road but with the different badge from some dodgy chinese manufacturer and the driver still thinks he own a merc.. hoha!
i wonder if the earbuds comes exactly like the same ?

like Waja turn to Evo, laff that is normal in malaysia, cos there are many people that cannot effort to buy a real ones. They wanna see cool and make their feel better. Sometimes I wanna laff when people drive waja that they mod it to evo look alike, and so to the sick ipod dude.

There is also 1 Gb nano .

1gb nano???

sure??? because when i was in Japan DEC 2005... the only ones available were 2gb and 4gb.... ......

it is a old news already in Malaysia ho ho ho

1GB Nano to replace 1GB ipod shuffle...

wah now also got fake ipod already.

yes. the 1gb version already in the market for 2 months..
please refer to apple site
http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/

I think the fake ipod nano can be easily identified. coz the click wheel and the screen are different. the fake ipod has a long screen while the original ipod has a wide screen.. the center click wheel of the fake ipod is a play and pause button while the ori one is not.

However for ipod shuffle.. if you look at it from the front view.. you wont know whether is it a fake one or a original.. they look identical.. i seen one before.

There are many fakes out there. You can even find them on Lelong. I PM-ed one of the sellers who was selling 'iPod Shuffle' and 'Ipod nano' and told him to stop misleading buyers.

They look alike but aren't the same thing. Mostly from China. China really don't give a rat's ass about copyright or intellectual rights. Power to the copiers man!
