This is motivated by the related question of constructing symmetric informationally complete POVMs (SIC-POVMs) for which the inner products are perfectly uniform. However, SIC-POVMs are notoriously hard to construct and despite some success of constructing them numerically, there is no analytic construction known. We present two constructions of approximate versions of SIC-POVMs, where a small deviation from uniformity of the inner products is allowed. The first construction is based on selecting vectors from a maximal collection of mutually unbiased bases and works whenever the dimension of the system is a prime power. The second construction is based on perturbing the matrix elements of a subset of mutually unbiased bases. Moreover, we construct vector systems in <span id=\"MathJax-Element-3-Frame\" class=\"MathJax\" tabindex=\"0\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-9\" class=\"math\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-10\" class=\"noError\">$C^n$<\/span><\/span><\/span><script id=\"MathJax-Element-3\" type=\"math\/tex\">\/\/ <![CDATA[\nC^n\n\/\/ ]]><\/script>which are almost orthogonal and which might turn out to be useful for quantum computation.
