The device has phone functionality but only with GSM networks, and does not have support for video calls. Our privacy policy is just standard, does it add a lot of value rewriting from scratch like 3000 words ? i did not know that. What do you find funny about our email address ? please share a good laugh with me. Thanks!

> The device has phone functionality but only with GSM networks,

It does eh ? From your own website, the specs page:

"GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz) via external micro USB dongle"

So, no you don't have phone functionality.

> does it add a lot of value rewriting from scratch like 3000 words ?

Does it add value ? No, but it means that you are not above infringing on someone else's copyright which in turn means that you seem to take a cavalier attitude towards ethics, which in turn reflects badly on your corporate attitude.

And when you're asking people to trust you with their money your ethics are important.

So, your privacy policy is not just 'standard' it is a rip-off.

> What do you find funny about our email address ?

It's RETURNS, not RETUNS.

Thanks!

edit:

And I just realized that your specs page is a rip-off of this apple.com page:

http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/

Trust me, mr. Legal Entity, that's one of the most stupid things you could have done.

Oh, and the rest of the website is a rip-off of:

http://www.uptailor.com/Dress-shirts-comprehensive/Fabric/fa...

I'm sure they're very happy about that too.

I think you are just a frustrated mind, that does not have any better reason to spend time. Again, the phone has GSM functionality, if you want to bought it is there for you to try. I did not infringe any copyright, the English language is free and i can use it as i want, i have freedom of speech as you. Our company is not a "corporate" as you call it, it is a startup and we are young guys, and you are just making your self look ridiculous acting like this. I would have expected comments about how to improve. not rude rants like yours. And thanks for let me know about that typo, i will fix it now, English is not my mother tongue anyway. Our spec page is inspired from the apple one, our whole website is differenet. Our company is called Enso Co. Ltd, snf not Mr Legal Entity, so please note it. You really like to spy other people's lifes. Do you have one on your own ? Uptailor.com is my customer. I am a web developer also, so there is nothing wrong with it. All developers recycle their codebase, you did not know that ? It is a pity. Thanks anyway for all your comments. They are precious. Albertp
So, after seeing you don't seem to care about ripping off bits and pieces of web design I figured there might be more to this, maybe you ripped off the design of your 'ensopad' too.

Look familiar ?

To expound on that, http://phandroid.com/2009/08/18/smit-android-mid-560-gets-le... has the OP commenting that he's ordering a lot of the SMiT devices, and is in a "trading" business. I think we're looking at a reseller here, not a manufacturer, which would explain a lot of the confusion regarding the specs and shippability of the device.
Good find.

So much for 'prototypes' then, in that post he writes it is a sample. Bit of a difference there.

That also explains why he hasn't got a clue about the normal phases a piece of hardware goes through before you are in a position to ship product.

I still don't get where the discrepancy of "Anyway i am not pre-selling anything, the device is currently produced and i can ship you 500 hundreds of pieces to you in a week." to "I am just a couple of weeks away from being able to ship." comes from as well as the documentation stating clearly that the base unit definitely does not have phone capability (it's marketed as a media player) and yet 'Alberto' states clearly that it has, but on their specs page it says that GSM/EDGE/UMTS are through a dongle.

Maybe his minimum order volume is 500 pieces and he hopes that he can scrape together the money to get the order delivered.

That could lead to 'interesting' situations if not enough people order.

I guess selling fake brand watches wasn't enough of an income stream:

http://watch-replicas.net/

enso-now and admin-enso-now are sockpuppets for lostintech, who professes to have some idea of how to spot fake watches:

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1116174

No kidding...

I really don't know how to react to this comment. It is in normal in China to suffer delays when you order something from a factory. It is normal when doing business in China.

The unit does have phone functionality through the dongle, and a custom application.

Scrape together all the money ? you must be joking. Do you have access to my financial informations, or do you know me personally ?

If the answer is no, how can you tell this ?

Regarding "how to spot fake watches", that's a sick business idea that came out after dealing with watch copies here in China, i thought i could make up a service and help people on eBay.

Yes lostintech and admin-enso-now are other account on my own. Then ?

You have been smart to find http://watch-replicas.net/, but not smart to post it.

When you will come to Shenzhen, setup this business and meet with Smith, maybe you will understand. I am not sure though, you are able to do all these things. I live in China since years and i do trading for a living. i have many connections here that can help overcome any problem. I think i do know much more practical things to get things done in a totally clear way, than you. Sincerely. Alberto
