What Happened to the Commodore PET Smartphone?
« on: November 04, 2015, 03:10:56 PM »
What Happened to the Commodore PET Smartphone? The last thing I heard was that the company making the phones couldn't get the Commodore license but it's for sale on there website. Anyone know what happened? Thanks.

The overpriced silk screen branded generic android phone hopefully got abandoned when they realized it wasn't possible to charge 100usd extra for a logo on the back?

And it's still just a generic Android phone. It's about as exciting as a Commodore branded trash can.

And how many people actually ordered 1?  I know I wouldn't.  I can printout a commodore logo if I really felt the need or just put it as a wallpaper.  If it came with a mobile version of Amiga OS though might be fun to play with lol
