Since the begining of the Ipod Era we have seen hundreds of ripoffs trying to lure customers from Apple, some of them with good design in hardware and software and others are just wasting time and money trying to derail the ipod train.

Now we are even seeing more and more companies working togethers to create the same iphone experience, we have even seen some prototypes from Nokia, Samsung, HTC, Meizu, the recently announced LG’s Voyager, Sun with Java Mobile FX platform and a collaboration between Samsung and Sun to create a better iphone interface, but what they are really doing is telling customers that the iphone is so successful that there’s not waste of time replicating the look and functionalities of the iphone.

By now there is one iphone’s killer and it is Apple, the rest are just set on displacing the iphone position and not in creating a better experience and an itunes like store, sony and others failed creating an itunes like experience in their online music stores, let just wait for Apple…, time will tell.
