Filed under: Review - 22 Mar 2008

Filed under: Cellphones
Now, we know the official story on the CeBIT Meizu shutdown was related to MP3 codec licensing, and not the M8’s iPhone-like UI. Still, it does seem strangely fortuitous that more pictures of the phone’s interface have just arised that seem to showcase a move absent from Appl…

Teclast’s M26 PMP touts oodles of touchscreen
