Talk about one of the most blatant rip-offs ever, even down to the name! The HTC G3 Asian is not an officially sanctioned smartphone from HTC, but is a clone of the HTC Hero in virtually every aspect, although this model will run on Windows Mobile instead of Android. It touts being the first Hisilicon K3-based cellphone which has a trackball, running on a 460MHz processor while accompanied by a 3.2″ display at 320 x 480 resolution, 128MB RAM, 256MB ROM, a 5-megapixel camera, built-in GPS, Wi-Fi connectivity, 3.5mm headphone jack and FM radio. Any takers for this $220 handset?
