A chinnees company ZOMG! Maker of Chinese iPad clone P88 is planning to sue Apple for cloning its tablet! The company further charging that Apple has not only replicated the design of its
multi-touch tablet, but also the device support and the sleeve. They’re
identical, he says. A company representative Wu added,
“I was very angry and flabbergasted when I saw the news of the iPad presentation two days ago… It is certainly our design. They’ve stolen because we present our P88 to everyone six months ago at the IFA (International Electronics Fair in Berlin).”
Sales of the P88 haven’t been too bad, but “if the iPad enters the Chinese market, we will definitely take a hit,” says Wu.
