I think you may be right there Gaz. Some of these outlets are even using genuine photos.

Here's another of the N85 in the same advertisement as the one above.

Agreed, there are several types of cloned N95-2, the latest being identical looks wise.

Between N95 models, I have found there to be around 11 different clones, all varying in level of detail.

that N79 looks good, only the shiny joystick is obviously wrong. and of course no front camera. I'm sure they could fih these two problems easily if they cloned everything else so well.
