So I tried to search to see if anyone had posted about this console coming before but didn't find anything.  This is a console I think I will be buying just to try it out.  $99 for a console that plays free games (although they can have Micro-Trans or Limited Levels - pay for full game) with no licensing requirement by the manufacturer should either flop or produce some really innovative indie game environment.  Also it will have XBMC support - if it also takes an IR signal it could replace my set top boxes as my media player.  After all the controller is almost an XBox Controller so I should be right at home.

For $99 I might just throw the hundy down and try it out!

I thought Darren had posted about it but it was just the OnLive ... thing

The only thing that matters when launching a console is games, what A-List stuff it's gonna have is going to be VERY important.

Well nice thing is that any Android game on the market will run on it already so it has that roster behind it.

With no touch screen?

Ahh, I see it will have a touch pad controller.

Still... kinda weird.

Saw it back when it was a kick starter.  Was tempted but had already gone over budget on something else.
