This fake chinese iPhone 5C “goo phone” carries 1GB of RAM and an 8-megapixel processor with a 2-megapixel front-facing cam cam!  The device will cost just $99 in China, and it doesn’t look all that bad from the outside.  Will it feature a retina display?  We dont know that, however for the price you cant complain or throw a tantrum.  Its only a $99 dollar fake!  We have seen the alleged “iPhone 5C” and honestly this doesn’t look too far off.

Bellow is the iPhone 5 by GooPhone as a fake replica also running Android.  As you can see its not that nice of a iPhone.  However this 5C iPhone goophone seen above in the white picture looks like they are improving their “pirate-phone” product line; the goo phone.

As you can see the previous Goophone (seen above) wasn’t the best quality device, however this one might be a different story in the case of the iPhone 5C in White seen above!  The specs look fair, and the price is obviously the most deciding factor; Its cheap.  If you want to get all goooeoy with writhe 5C-infringment some c-r-a-p-p-y android copy will give you a perfect solution; the GooPhone, by GooPhone of China.

We will continue to cover the details on the goophone as it is made and produced.  Apple always makes the highest quality products but if you need to get on your “iPhone wanna-be” this might a perfect cheap solution for your clone cravings.  Don’t expect high quality and honestly its kinda lame to buy “fake” items, even if they do look cool.

Bellow are more previous knockoffs of the goo-phone that is ALL android!  The 5C in “fake-mode” should be interesting!

You will get the same feeling you get when you score those “$5 dollar Oakley Monster Pup” sunglasses on your trip to Mexico.  However don’t be too disappointed if it breaks while your using it.  Im pretty sure Apple wont be offering an in-store trade-in program for these devices ;).  Also the Goophone warranty is completely in chinese and I don’t have the mental stability or time to translate everything for you however I Translated part of it here.  …uhh its too tiring, I cant get it all translated because its too confusing!  You can visit GooPhone.com and read more about if you know chinese.

We recently covered why the Tile App sucks and now this amazingly sucky gadget!

You will get a kick out of this though  It really does suck! haha!

And as I said, the “Useless Box” is essentially a “Useless Box” which does nothing other then utter uselessness.  In this day and age people buy a lot of dumb things, but this has to be one of the dumbest.  However I am thinking about buying this just so I can give it to any annoying people in my house so that they can pleasure themselves by pressing the switch multiple times and repeating the same thing.

The useless box kit comes with the necessary elements that you need to put it together.  You simply follow the useless instructions that may be the most useful thing you actually will get and then you will ingeniously make the “useless box.”  Im pretty sure its useless but haven’t tested it myself to be sure.

Heres the description from “ThinkGeek”

“The Useless Box Kit arrives as most kits do: a pile of parts. With easy to follow instructions, you’ll be assembling your Useless Box Kit very quickly. Whip out your soldering iron, do a little bit of work, and then screw the thing together. When you’re done, you’ll have your own gleaming acrylic box. Set it on your desk and wait for curiosity to cause victim after victim to turn it on – each to be met with the little finger turning the box back off. The Useless Box Kit – the silliest science kit we’ve ever fallen in love with.”

This dumb geeky thing can be purchased for a great price on ThinkGeek.com.  Its only $39.99 dollars and can provide you with countless hours of fun and entertainment!  Go here to read more: ThinkGeek.

However this is got to be the most sucky thing we have reviewed yet!  This lame sauce device called “the useless box” has to be the dumbest and the most hilarious thing you will ever see if you have a side of humor ordered along with that tech lifestyle

Even though this is an awesome idea, I’m slightly critical on how its going to work.  First off, this “tile” must be attached to things for it to be used.  And if someone is really going to steal something they will remove the tile because everyone will know about it by that time (If in fact the “tile” makes its popularity).  The idea of being able to track your things is really cool, but why not make little GPS modules that you can actually track the exact location of?  I feel this would be a whole lot more useful!  What if not everyone has the tile app and what if for some reason you are not in “distance” with the tile.

The main issue I can identify with this “tile” device is that it needs to be within distance to be seen on the device.  It makes it hard to find your item if you have to be within a few feed to see it.  I can see that it would be helpful if your trying to find keys on your house or something, but as a way to recover a stolen item, or as a way to track a vehicle or similar uses where you can actually “track” its true “location”, it sucks!  Great idea, but I would buy it if it was a little bit different.

If the “tile” could track the exact location at any time it would be a HUGE hit.  I would buy something like that even if it cost $50+ dollars or even more!  Insurance companies would also buy them from you to track cars being insured in high-risk theft regions.  There are countless ways that something like this could be improved, however the limited distance of this “tile’ tracker and the limited market share of people actually wanting something that can only track things within your house makes it not a worthy buy!

I love the idea of crowd-sorcing-location but how will it really work?  Many times we get all skeptical about things we haven’t seen and I understand that.  The issue is that Apple actually has an app “find my iPhone” which is an excellent app which you can see the currant location of ALL devices that are connected to your MAC iCloud account.  This technology is already a lot farther in advancement then the “tile”.  I feel like the “tile” and its app is like taking something awesome and making it old again.  Isn’t there a way to triangulate somehow and make a tile that can be seen on an actual map without the “need” of people crowd-sourcing it’s location?  I know there is a way!  In the currant the tile kinda sucks.. sadly to say.  I love new ideas but this one.. is a little over hyped i’d say…

When Steve Jobs demanded that the computer needed “Type-Face” and fonts, people thought it couldn’t happen, and they thought it was crazy!  But the truth is that it was VERY necessary.  Like this, I believe that if people think its not possible, it can be possible!  The “tile” app can be much more then it really is!

I hope the tile team makes a team effort at changing the way we locate things in an even more genius way!  For now, I won’t be buying any tiles.  its worthless unless I can see it on a map!

Watch the video bellow so you know what this is!

I personally think that the Jobs Film With Ashton Kutcher may be a monetization on the recent death of Steve Jobs as many critics are saying, however it did portray some important points about Steve Jobs!  Some that we should actually learn from and implement in our own lives and some traits we shouldn’t.  Not everything about Steve Jobs was golden!

I think it’s important to watch a movie like this and take something from it instead of watching as “just another movie.”  This movie had a lot to learn from.  I loved the movie because Steve Jobs inspires me and gives me an example of someone that really had a true vision and put his all into his ideas even when he was kicked off the team, or when people didn’t believe in him.

Bellow are 3 good points that we should take home and a list of 3 bad points that we shouldn’t be implementing in our lives including those reasons why.

The Good Points:

1. Steve Jobs was a visionary.  He was able to visualize what he wanted and he was able to tell others exactly what he wanted.  Or rather he knew what he wanted when he saw it.  At times he wasn’t the nicest about it.  He fired people on the spot for their perceived disrespect for the goal and mission, but in the end Steve knew how to make his idea reality throughout his mistakes.  In the end it was worth it.
2. Steve wasn’t worried about what people thought he still went forward with the ideas he KNEW were the best.  Even after near-falure and getting kicked off the team he still went for what he believed in.  In our lives we need to go with our gut, go with what we know is best, and do the right we know!  Steve went for what he believed in.  What would this world be like if each of us went for our passion like Steve did?
3. Jobs was able to see potential in someones idea.  He was able to see that the “first idea” was really something worth perusing.  In fact he took an idea and made it something better then it would have ever been without his vision of the idea.  Many of us can see the potential in other ideas but do we truly put 100% into them?  Do we truly invest our full focus on ideas when we know they have huge potential?  I personally know that after being able to identify this success fact I will be driving towards ideas I believe in a knew and renewed way!

The Bad Points:

1. While jobs was in fact a great inovationist, he didn’t get all the ideas himself.  He also didn’t give credit to others the way he should and at times he wasn’t the most honest.  If you gain the whole world and loos your honesty, integrity and your best friends what is the point?  Many of us would agree that steve jobs had the “life”  he had money, cars, houses, anything, and a great job that he enjoyed, however its not all a bright side!  Jobs lost a lot of good friends, he wasn’t always honest, and he didn’t keep a perfect line of integrity.
2. After reading the “Steve Jobs” book and now the Jobs Film With Ashton Kutcher, I can come to the conclusion that having a truly “good” life may not mean everything that it meant for Steve Jobs.  Its at least a good thought to ponder as I invest my own life in entrepreneurial ventures, ideas, and businesses.  It may also be a good thought for you.
3. While Steve jobs did well at taking ideas and making them “awesome”, he stole a lot of ideas.  He wasn’t always the “first inventor”  He actually took many ideas and made them his own and put his “big name” on them, making them better, and called them his own.  It may be karma or what ever you call it that he was actually kicked off his own team at one point.  This may have been a wake up call that was coming his way!  However I do respect the ideas that he did create.  He did make many of his own ideas.  He was a visionary entrepreneur with the inspiration and motivation that wouldn’t have driven the ideas without his presence!

Summary:

It was a good movie for the simple fact that it brought reminded me of why I am motivated in life.  It also motivated me more towards my own ideas.  It inspired me.  No matter how many times I fall I should peruse my ideas that I believe whole-heartedly.  I should give credit to others as Jobs sometimes failed to do.   I should put people before the motivation for an “idea” or “website” or “product.”  People always last longer.  They bring more happiness.

Steve Jobs actually treated his body un-heathfully at times because his motivation drove him to work longer hours.  This also could have given him more stress.  Sure he was inspired, but is it worth your lifetime to loose it from your own ideas and thoughts?  He also didn’t put family first as much as I’m sure he could have.  We all have things we could improve on and I myself am one that needs improvement in many aspects that will effect my life to come.  We are always the own caption of our own ship.  We have the ability to do anything we set our mind fully on.  Its our choice.  We decide.
