Bring on board a partner or investor who's willing to bankroll production of many of these units, hopefully bringing down the prices through bulk purchase (which I imagine Eyetech cannot afford to do on their own).


The problem is, the console video games market is even tougher than the OS market!  From the past history one could make an argument that there isn't enough room for more than two console producers at any given time.  Right now, we have three.  One of which has a fairly healthy business (Sony), one of which is fighting to break even (Nintendo) and one of which has, literally, billions to invest, and doesn't care about losing HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS PER QUARTER (Microsoft).  Who would invest in a company looking to go against those behemoths?  I sure wouldn't!

I agree, an Amiga console would be a neat toy...  But the market is already beyond saturated.
