General Comments

I've had my gizmondo for over a year now, and it functions just as well now as it did when i bought it.Though the games catalogue may be slighlty lacking it more than makes up for it in with it's wealth of features.
It not only features
Bluetooth
GPRS
GPS
A VGA camera
and a multimedia system.
It also uses the Windows CE operating system which allows it to play any windows media player files. The os even has internet explorer which until the company went bust allowed you to surf the internet not like a phone of it's time but like a modern day o2 imode or tmobile web and walk phone.
Overall this is an incredible machine let down only by the company's incompetence
