This report tells about the knock off cell phones and music players fashioned after Apple’s iPhones and iPods.  Apparently in China and other Asian countries there are so many counterfeit products for sale that the counterfeit Apple products are more abundant than the genuine versions.  Is this a good thing because it shows that the authentic versions of name brand products are so desirable that everyone wants to make copy of them?  After all imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right?  Or is this a horrible trend that should be stopped at all costs because it dilutes the brand with inferior clones?  Post your thoughts in the comments.
