Hey Guys,
I know the story about this service pretty well. Larry Horowitz, the founder, is a businessman who has been living in China since the 60’s. He has a real estate corporation, and he had the idea of building a custom phone for his agents. After that, the idea of zzzPhone came out. They have been running through a bunch of problems. And their marketing skills are nule. But i ordered my phone (the 1.1 version) and I eventually received it. And it works simply great. My conclusions overall are that their company is not well organized. But their idea is brilliant and the product itself works So i’m giving them another try.
It’s definitely NOT a scam, but their business definitely has to improve to be able to reach a global market.
Btw, the guys over Unified are simply great

Best regards, if you want to, don’t hesitate to contact me.

I think its real. I have spent time looking into it and there seem to be a lot of people with the phones. At the same time there are defiantly some things i am uncertain of. First most people are saying the phones do not run on the os that they are supposed to (Windows Mobile or Android). Also the website does not seem very professional. I believe that the phones are real, but think there have been some problems. I don’t think i will buy one yet but hopefully in the near future i will have the confidence in them to do so.

Absolutely Scott. I actually took them seriously a couple of weeks ago. It was yesturday that I returned to their site for any updates and things became clearer then.

The funny thing was the whole theory behind it. “Innovators from US went down to China and making in some factory” haha..

We wanted to see a demo unit of one and were told that we could meet them somewhere and he’d let me play with one. GIMME A BREAK.

After that initial conversation with Unified, I felt like they were misrepresenting themselves an awful lot. I won’t even talk about them on AndroidGuys any longer.
