While this sounds like just about as strange a name that Nokia could come up with, the rumor train has dubbed the iPhone look-a-like the iPerformer. Personally I am thinking this one has to be false, having an iPhone competitor named the iPerformer sounds like they are just asking for trouble.

This handset has been a long time in the making, the pic alone is courtesy of an image from the GoPlay event that was held back in August of 2007. Along with the vague rumor of a name, the images are just not available and the known specs are just as elusive. The iPerformer, as we can tell from the picture feature a widescreen display, which appears by the lack of buttons to be touchscreen based. It is also rumored to feature NaviScroll, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a QWERTY keyboard as well as an FM radio and FM transmitter.

Just as light as the rest of the details, the price and any possible release date are still a mystery. Wow, such a cool looking and potentially promising phone that we first saw about 9 months ago, with so few details.

While this might not work for cards you have to slide through a magnetic reader, the idea is definitely sound. Just take pictures of your club cards (Costco, Safeway, Blockbuster), import them into your iPhone as an album, and trim down the number of cards you have to carry in your wallet. When you need to use a card, just whip out your phone and show it to the cashier, hoping that they don’t get too uppity about your cleverness. If they do, just throw your phone at their head à la Naomi Campbell. ['t Is Goud via Lifehacker]
