HTC Diamond2 clone dual boots

Cloned handsets these days seem to get better and better, and the HTC Diamond2 clone that you see here certainly wins brownie points with us simply considering it is able to dual boot both the Android and Windows Mobile 6.5 operating systems. Granted, the 600MHz processor might not seem to pack abundant muscle, but it still comes with a WQVGA display that ought to please some quarters. No concept on whether that cloned handset is able to construct phone calls on both operating systems, so we will just have to wait until the real deal comes out before arriving at a conclusion.

Each drive is hand-assembled and painted just to look like the real deal, so whether you’re looking for something to give to your techie girlfriend, that might be just the thing. It’s currently available in Korea, so you might have to jump through a few hoops in order to get your mittens on one of these.

Apple Core i5 And Core i7 MacBook Pro Leaked?

This actually seems a little suspect at the moment, particularly since Apple is probably the king of secrecy, but it’s still interesting to note that an online store has started listing MacBook Pros powered by Intel’s Core i5 and Core i7 processors. According to the site, it’ll be released in April 2010, which is next month, and features a new 8-hour battery and new multi-touch trackpad, amongst other things. What do you think? Fake listing, and cheap publicity, or the real deal, with interesting specs? Chances seem to be higher that it’s not genuine.

"NDA dictates I keep that vague. For a leading cell platform I created UX flows of common controls and usages. After client review I created flash demos. Those demo's were soon after reviewed and passed on to SectionSeven development to create interactive prototypes"

Do you think these are legit, or just something that should be left in the rumor bin?
