Gizmondo - Gizmondo Widescreen

Gizmondo Widescreen

Tiger Telematics announced a new Gizmondo model for release in Q2 2006. It was intended to have a larger, 4" screen and upgrades like Wi-Fi, TV-out support, an improved 480 × 272 pixel resolution, a 2 megapixel camera, and a 500 MHz processor. It also featured new icons on the buttons, replacing the old one. The widescreen Gizmondo was announced just a few weeks before the U.S. launch of the Gizmondo, possibly prompting some potential customers to not buy the Gizmondo, and instead wait for the improved model, in an example of the Osborne effect. However, as Tiger Telematics went bankrupt, the widescreen Gizmondo was never released.
