Even though the iPod Touch has barely touched the shelves on most Apple stores throughout the States, the Chinese manufacturer Meizu is already working on a clone to put on their shelves as soon as humanly possible.

Although the details of the unit are still a bit scarce, the company claims that it will have a 3 inch touch screen, a home button at the front, and obviously the ability to play music and videos in various formats.

It took Apple a couple years of development to come up with a good touchscreen product that would set the bar even higher. In this case, I wouldn’t be surprised if we showcased this upcoming touch-screen media player a month or two from now.

Apple’s products aren’t flawless, but still the market revolves around their products, and the competitors seem to be very comfortable with simply following their footsteps, rather than raising the bar themselves.
