With a very nice slim design, and a lot of extra features.
A cool clone, finally.
However, I think it won't be long before we are past the point of even needing to have the switch/unplug, and eventually will not need a dongle at all (complete custom firmware?). Devices like these, especially consisting which a switch like that for the slim, are just going to be old news and old ideas.
What I'd really like is if these companies invested some R&D funds into making the jailbreak more convenient, such as the two points mentioned above. All I see is reinventing the wheel over and over just to get a hand in the 'modding scene', which if a product advertises a manager alongside, I have to think 'piracy scene' and 'pirates' are their target consumer.
Someone in China: please tell me how crazy the pirate shops are going about the jailbreak!
