New handheld revealed: Jungle

The clamshell device will allegedly sport a super high-resolution display, features a full QWERTY keyboard along with what looks like a touch sensitive d-pad and button arrangement, and may run atop a custom Linux build. The Jungle will also apparently sport a mini HDMI port, a micro USB port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.  

Ngage 2.0.

Interesting.

who is gonna play a mmo on a handheld?

...is this one of those jokes?

I can't think of anything else but a room filled with suits when I see the slogan "Welcome to the Jungle".

Horrible music, but who knows where this leads to.

It's dumb but new ideas are always good for the market, even when they appear bad.  I want to see some Jungle Quick Looks, hah.

" Ngage 2.0. "

This is a bad idea.

Geez, talk about a bizarre development.

This is crazy and probably a bad idea

looks stupid 
also i think battlestar galactica is awful 
 
 
3DS hooray!

I am known to jungle.

Does it play Jungler? 

With the PSP in this weird stagnant phase and the 3DS basically looking like an overpriced DSi now may not be such a bad time for a third entry into the handheld market. 

I read that as Jungler, now I'm just disappointed.

The only thing that I want to know about this whole issue ... did the news surface in time for tomorrow's bombcast?

I think that not having any sort of analog stick really hurts it in this day and age. Doesn't seem to offer anything new. 
 
Does anyone really want to buy another handheld when the 3DS is right around the corner?

I hate to be so pessimistic, but I'm gonna go ahead and call a giant failure for this. Just doesn't seem like a good idea.

But...when has this EVER worked? By that I mean a portable device by anybody other than Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo. Even some of them can't do it right.

Risky, I don't think this handheld will get alot of 3rd party support.

hahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...!

" ...is this one of those jokes? "

This is absolutely fucking crazy. I can't wait to hear what my various podcasts have to say about this, besides the obvious. 
 
What the hell is Panasonic even thinking? 

I know it's 2010... but I can't help but fully expect this thing to put out some shitty PSP-ish graphics.

Come on Hamz do you REALLY think that the handheld market has room for three consoles? The 3DS may be pricey but it's still going to sell like hotcakes. "

Why?

Aww, I wish there was a real Battlestar game coming out. :(

this looks god awful...

Good luck playing a decent MMO with a microscopic keyboard and no mouse.

Quite possibly the stupidest thing I've ever seen. What the hell were they thinking?

Is it 1992?

What? WHY!?!
 
Who in their right mind is going to play a MMO on a 4 inch screen without a mouse and a shitty micro keyboard!?!

This thing is probably gonna make the N-Gage seem like a good idea.

Looks like crap though.
