Here we go again “Gizmondo Rising Again in 2008″

So yesterday the news was that Stefan Eriksson was freed from his US prison confines. His ass was being deported though because he is no longer welcome on US soil.

Too bad that doesn’t include his crappy electronic device that he capitalized on, the Gizmondo. I didn’t feel him being released was newsworthy, so I didn’t say anything, but with this new Gizmondo teaser site, it looks like the man and the legend(ary failure) might both be making a comeback.

If its really coming, it will be more service based and will land during the Christmas season this year (so in a couple months? Christmas creep is a bitch like that). There will be a live marketplace, I presume that will be a rip off from what Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony have perfected, and the device will apparently be $100, then the marketplace will be where you can buy open-source games for the device. Oh, and there will be “psychic worlds”.
