Phantom Lapboard On Sale August 15th

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the been-waiting dept.

MBraynard writes "No idea when they are launching the actual console, Infinium Labs has announced that in under a month, they will start selling the Phantom Lapboard from their online store. They have even found a partner to help sell the Lapboard in Europe." From the article: "The Company has commissioned Touchwood, a solutions-oriented, technology- based strategic marketing communications firm based in St. Louis, to plan and implement major revisions to the design and content of the [Phantom] website. The website revisions will incorporate direct marketing capabilities including an online merchant store to support business to consumer and business to business transactions with credit card banking services."

    From TFA: The Phantom Lapboard is an innovative peripheral that enables players to control games designed for keyboard and mouse usage with as much agility as they are used to in the office, from the comfort of the couch or easy chair. The Lapboard rotates for left- and right-handed users and also inclines on a 30-degree angle with a hard surface below for the Phantom Mouse. The device is wireless and provides USB and headphone/microphone ports. The Phantom Lapboard interchangeable key-face technology is designed for game-specific and business software applications.

    When I first tried to view this article, I got the famous "Nothing to see here. Please move along." message. Has this ever been more apropos?

    Okay, so I did RTFA. This is a press release that they have a new web designer that's good at ecommerce. Oh, and they happen to need this new website because they've got this keyboard they want to sell. Yeah.

    I'm stuck between a healty WTF and a "who gives a shit?"

    Is it just my observation, or are there way too many stupid people in the world?

    They have almost a month to get their vaporizer working again and turn this thing back into another neverending promise.

    I strongly believe in this company... and I believe they can find a way to delay it, production problems, website problems. Please, Infinium Labs, don't disappoint me now!
