The price is hugely right and it comes with accouterments, but I can't get around without the pkb.

CE Geek might like it; a PPC on steroids.

Edit: check out the comments. Backers have become rather suspicious.

I can't tell if this is suspicious, by the looks of it, it's pretty thick so it's probably not that hard to manufacture at that pricepoint. It's going to be more expensive later on anyway.

This is selling for $182.00 on Don Quijote in Japan with 1920x1080 screen (well yes, it's much bigger)

Yeah, stingraze, even a geek like me doesn't have any pockets that big.

Nah, then I'd have to change my name to 10 Geek.

Your joke made my day. I think one good side about being a male is that the pants and such usually have more pockets to put stuff than female clothes. Well, at least that is usually the case... I think.

Didn't mean to make you cross your legs

But the recent comment blow back on indiegogo computer is why I'll follow on indiegogo, but try to buy after the machine is actually in someone else's hands and a 2nd generation at that.

That's how I bought the GPD Pocket (on Amazon: higher price, but better service) and only last week, put down money for the Gemini. The Gemini cost me more than it did the original backers, but what price is a peace of mind.

But ArchiMark? That guy has all my admiration--GPD Win, Pocket, Gemini, he always gets the devices before anybody else. We should send him to Vegas

One main lesson to always remember about these types of thing is, "If it seems too good to be true, then it probably is."
