Still No Phantom Products, But Hey, They Changed Their Name!
from the don't-look-too-closely dept
Vaporware purveyor Infinium, which has been promising its earth-shattering, paradigm-busting, mind-blowing Phantom gaming console for years is back in the news. No, it hasn't finally released anything, like that gaming keyboard it said would be out in the second quarter (though apparently that's been pushed back to October, but don't hold your breath) -- it's just changed its name to Phantom Entertainment. "Phantom" always seemed an appropriate name, since the gaming system never actually bothered to turn up. Doesn't look like anything's changing on that front, so apparently it was time to engineer a PR move, rather than a product.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
