Looks like we're starting to see a trend of "gaming PDAs". I thought we hit this before, but apparently not -- a company called Tiger Telematics is going to release a CE .NET-based gaming handheld, complete with 3D gaming, SMS, a camera, Bluetooth, and GPS. That's a pretty full featureset if you ask me!
You can check out the official product webpage here, although it seems to be mostly Flash-based fluff at this point.
That looks big! The screen looks to be a 3.5 in qvga. I think the zodiac will be the better choice with half vga and a nice develper list, and decent size.

I could have sworn the Flash presentation said a 2.8" screen...

I cant take any other Tomb Raider port... :2gunfire:
just port another old thing... Daytona USA, GTA, Golden Axe, Alex kidd in miracle world, castlevania,Zelda, starfox, grand turismo, flashback, quake...
whatever other game
but please, no more tomb raider! ukeface:
Hmmm. Hard to tell how well something like this would do. With so many features I can't see it being cheap (GPS alone would do a good job of jacking the price up.) which would exclude it as a device for little [insert some kids name here] for X-mas (Or whenever it comes out.)
And price plays a major roll in handheld gaming systems because you are going up against the Game Boy. Several other companies have tried the more featured device "thing" over the years and time and again Game Boy has blown them out of the water.
Also as a video game system I don't know about CE. This was tried with Dreamcast by having the option to use CE as the language with the idea that ports from windows would be easier. No one, AFAIK, bothered using CE because it wasn't close enough to the metal. CE.NET may be more efficient so this may end up being a moot point.
*shrugs* If nothing else its an interesting device.
PS- No more tomb Raider. Please for the love of god no more!!! Well maybe if its nak…. Never mind. *Washes his mind out with some soap.*
:wink:

I think not. The Dreamcast has a ton of software written for it by home-users. Just go to DC Emulation. I love the Super Nintendo Emulator and it is one of the best pieces of software for the DC.
