Shameless is not even the word for it. While some companies try to get away with calling themselves Nokla or Block Berry, this Chinese KIRFers have no qualms about copying HTC’s EVO 4G as a whole (externally, anyway). Yes, the Sprint insignia and the promise of 4G, both of which are of course, includes entertaining false. Not only do you get that no supersonic WiMAX radio, you also miss out on Android, because this EVO drives the gravy train WinMo 6.5. There is no 8 megapixel camera, no 720p video, and no mini-HDMI output. But you still get a 4.3-inch, 800 x 480 screen and one of the best copy-and-paste jobs Kirf we’ve seen so far.

Remember the HTC Glacier spotted in a database a few months ago? Neither have we, but it is back to eating almost any other smartphone’s pixel-pushing lunch. Here it is at number four on the charts GLBenchmark Pro 1.1, where only one variant of the Samsung S Galaxy and a few of the Tegra 2 tablets managed to prevent him from claiming the top spot. Alien Babel Tech, which found the entry, consider that this evidence the device has one of the new Snapdragon dual cores, and although we do not speculate that far more than a series of coincidences point to a T-Mobile to launch (and a bolt The logic has to worry about battery life) if or when it hits our shores.

Good news for owners Wild Fire: fresh from the oven of the HTC 3.0 sync desktop suite – such as baked desire for the weekend – iTunes Sync is the newest company of the budget of the device. We had a Wild Fire at hand, we decided to go through the trouble to check whether this new feature. And boy, it was a bumpy start. We had no problems with obtaining the software, but the HTC Sync “option to appear in the USB connection to get the menu, we had the USB debugging mode (Settings -> Applications -> Development) switch the creation of our first link. As fiddly as it sounds, this was really the only tricky part of the preparation, and you can leave debug mode switched off afterwards.

So, how does the iTunes sync work? Well, it’s certainly not as exciting as Palm’s brutal hack – it appears to only access the iTunes database and playlists for the locations of files, instead of crazy to think that iTunes is a Wild Fire iDevice. You will also be limited to either sync everything or just selected playlists (supported smart playlists), in other words, you can not sync by artists or genres, and you have set up a special playlist to sync podcasts. Apart from this small error, we would say that this is still a pretty neat solution to an age-old problem, and hopefully HTC will be a similar app for Mac users. Hands-on video after the break.
