Not sure if it's really an Android OS powered phone, don't understand why all the web services failed.

And don't understand why they should simulate an Android UI in Windows Mobile or other OS?

The Android phone will be quickly very cheap, US$200 is middle range Android phone in this year, i guess, and an WM phone is even more expensive than this, what's the incentive to put so much time and energy in writing just a UI simulation of Android in WM?

The Android OS is open sourced, is not it cheaper than porting Android OS to a mobile phone than writing Android UI simulation on a expensive WM phone?

I'm stupid in business, please advise me about the business logic behind.

That thing looks ugly.

Remember. Android is open source. Why wouldn't it be running android?

It is not powered by Android software it just looks like Android. But the phone apparently looks solid and is of good quality not like other Chinese knockoffs. Also comes with 4MP camera, but unfortunately no WIFI

It would be a perfect if cames with dual sim and also WIFI.
