They are the latest devices from TechFaith Wireless. The i320 clone is different in a key way. Samsung designed the i320 focused on one-handed operation. So it doesn't have a touch screen and runs Windows Mobile for Smartphones. The TFW version is a Pocket PC based device, with a touch screen. The SLVR clone is impressive on the outside and even more impressive inside. It's running the Smartphone OS with 512MB of memory! Unfortunately, it is only a tri-band phone and has just a 176x220 screen. Despite a couple sour features, TFW has made a pretty good first stab at the Windows Mobile market. Hopefully we'll see more of these and other creations for them in the coming months. <br /><br />You can find more detailed information on these devices, including more pictures, over at the::unwired.
