And it's in Korea that we have found this very interesting iMATE JAM (S100) clone or killer that works on CDMA waves (so no GSM) and that will be available shortly in Korea. For those that had a look at the picture already: YES, it looks like an iPOD."</i><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/Kiler.jpg" /> <br /><br />There are no further details about this device at the moment, as the one pictured is a prototype. Aakihabara News speculate that this could well be a Smartphone running on CE, as BlueBirdSoft who were displaying it have worked with WinCE devices in the past. So does the form factor look good to you, or is it a little too close to comfort to.... you-know-who? ;-)
