Tech stories from around the world!

This is a very interesting negative news for gadgets. Meizu used to be one of the best PMP makers out of China. Then they got into the iPhone clone fever. If there’s such a thing as a career ending gadget for manufacturers, the Meizu M8 is one for company CEO J Wong. Spending time and money in development chasing the shadow of the iPhone. If you don’t believe me, scroll our Meizu M8 page.

Today, Meizu is a mere shadow of itself. A one-product non-wonder of a company, and it doesn’t seem that they are going to stop day dreaming soon with the recent announcements of Meizu M8 iteration the Meizu M9. That’s why this recent piece of news from J. Wong is quite a relief for followers of the company and, I’m sure, the more rational Meizu fans as well. After the Apple iPad announcement, some fans began posting their idea of a Meizu mPad, purportedly to rival the Apple iPad. Jack Wong’s response was curt:

” Stop the photoshop work. I do not have the slightest interest in creating a big MP4! Not enough to lose face”.

Is Meizu CEO J. Wong taking a swipe at the iPad or has he finally come to his senses?
