Um This is a bit odd. As you can already see. This thing was going to be Re-Re-Released back in May but got delayed. I have to admit I found this funny when I found out about this. But I am curious by the fact it's being Re-Released.Gizmondo chief Carl Freer has apparently told fans of the failed handheld games console that the gadget will be back on the market and is "on target for a Q4 2008" launch... er... relaunch.
Freer first expressed his desire to revive Gizmondo back in November 2007. At the time, he forecast that the would-be PSP and DS Lite beater could be back on store shelves in May.
Gizmondo set to be Re-Released in 4Q of this year

Is this going to be the widescreen Gizmondo they ranted about putting out before the stupid thing died?
They'd have luck as an open-source handheld, but a commercial one again? Besides, unless you wanna pay out the wazzoo for one, you'll be watching in-game ads (literally, commercials), so why is this even good news?

Wow that is very interesting and for only $99!
I hope it does come out, but I don't think that it will ever be a ds lite beater.

Well, Stephan Ericsson or whatever his name was is, did business with the mob, didn't he? Anyways, he's in jail now, I think. This is just some guy who wants to revive the brand, methinks, as Tiger Telematics is now in the crapper.Negative_Creep wrote:Isn't the Gizmondo by a bunch of criminals :S
If they can make that $99 price point, this device has the potential to be awesome. I doubt that'll happen, though; remember when the EEE was supposed to be $100?

With Pandora and Wiz to be on the market at the same time, I don't see why you would buy a Gizmondo unless it's offered at a ridiculously low price point, which it won't be. Looks like thees guys have brought a knife to a gun fight, I expect it to tank again quickly.
Maybe this time, though, the reseller's market will leave some cheap ones hanging around on eBay for us to play with!
