Such a great idea that wasn't released. As far as I know.

Seeing as how they were at E3, I'd say they were real. This is very possible with such technologies as Mini and Micro ATX/ITX. It is also very costly.sam fisher wrote:Wouldn't have been physically possible in any small space. Its going for games like doom 3 etc. Thing of the cooling needs! Its probably fake.
Thing looks wild! I'd like to think it would make it into the portable video game market, but considering that thing is nearly on par with my laptop I doubt it'd be released or do that well.

so its basically a UMPC with good specs, probably would cost thousands if it were sold

I stand corrected. But wasn't the Phantom also at many a E3 and its basically been fake and vaporware since the beginning.Skyone wrote:Seeing as how they were at E3, I'd say they were real.

keep in mind that the oqo is less than half the size of that thing,and that stuff like the q1 and that nice new sony UMPC are smaller as well, and also WAY too damn expensive to justify their purchace. if they were sub 800$ then it would be approaching reasonble but they are all about a grand above that mark

i really like the idea of a UMPC like the oqo or the new sony ux50 and samsung q1 the price is about 3x what the intended price range was(sub 800$) cool but totally rediculous, call me when they cost 5-700$

Looks very nice but I can't imagine it being very comfortable to hold due to heat considerations.
On the flip side I had a dream about it being for sale last night so maybe that's a good sign
