Title: What Happened to the Commodore PET Smartphone?
Post by: fondpondforever 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?

The Commodore Logo is still on the back.

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

Does it matter what happened to it?

Judging from their facebook https://www.facebook.com/cbm.commodore first orders seem to have shipped...

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
