That's lovely, another bog-standard generic product with shameless brand-whoring. Do you think if we all pitch in, we can get enough to have someone shove it into one of McEwen's orifices?

This is a legitimate Amiga phone.
This is legitimate like Richard Nixon in drag is a woman.

There is nothing illegal about raping a smartphone or tv set. It really jus means you are awesome.
Hey now, just because it's legal doesn't make it right. I've got nothing but respect for someone who has a loving relationship and corresponding healthy sex life with their appliances, but assault isn't cool no matter how casually the law looks upon it.

We don't have to like it, and one could say that it has nothing to do with the Original Amiga. But it the eyes of the law these things are more legitimate Amiga products than MiniMix, Natami, Morphos etc.
Who gives a damn about trademark law? People didn't just go along with New Coke simply because it was a legal use of a trademark.
