Is this for real? If it is, it seems kind of stupid, and not all that powerful.

Here are the, well, what they call the NanoGears "specs"

Not very much to see...

What do you think? It looks like vapourwear similar to The Phantom, but then again, the Phantom came true...

i want one

Ardeo, it is kind of cool, but it sems silly. It seems to be made to compete with the Hand held game system/ MP3 Player I want, the GP32, but they just ripped everything off the GameBoy. It is a odd little thing. They might just be trolling for a cash flow, or they might just simply have made a fake, as those buttons look ripped from an XBOX.

They spelled it "Confidental"

guess i'll have to make do with my current hand helds

Oh my god at least upgrade

i will, how about the Terminator issue Aibo?



complete with anthrax spores and nerve gas

Even though my pet is dead ARDEO :EVIL: Ian, can you tell?

Looks like nonsense to me... badly mocked up images from some fanboy somewhere. This is the first I've heard of it anyway.

That said, they said the Phantom console was a hoax before it actually turned out to be real So I guess it could be real.

Either way, withe GBA SP selling more than another console in North America, and with everyone eagerly awaiting the Sony PSP and not eagerly awaiting the Nokia nGage... the news of ANOTHER handheld will hardly present more than a blip on the radar

There's another handheld on the way from ex-Palm guys too...

You have no idea how much I miss that speak here.

So it is most likely fake, and if not, failed already. OK. By the way, you know the GP32 is coming to Europe right?

Yeah... but they were supposed to release it last Xmas and it didn't happen. So call me Mister Cynical I really don't see the point of releasing the GP32 here anyway. Nice hardware, but people don't buy gaming systems for the hardware (unless you're a PC gamer)

Yeah, exactly. The people who were going to buy the stuff to manufacture it never did, or at least I think that was the case.

Speaking of robots, have you guys checked out Honda Asimo? It's quite creepy!
