I've been trying to buy one for a couple weeks for unrelated reasons. How do you have a phone alternative if they can't be bought?

I think that's the reason for the shift stated in the article.

P.S. Try having a look on eBay. That's where I bought my Intex Aquafish. Alternatively, if you're a tinkerer, you could try a community port (note, there's no AlienDalvik Android support): https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Adaptations/libhybris
