Unfortunately, Fusion Garage seems to have even less marketing savvy than another also-ran Singapore company – Creative.

Creative's MP3 players consistently out-featured & out-teched the iPod in the early days, but Apple's marketing machine pretty much ploughed them under in that segment.

If it actually materializes, Apple's mythical iTablet will have the JooJoo for breakfast.

This was a mass market hand held games console announced in 2004 by a small company and was finally launched in 2006 after an often stalled development process. By that time big players such as Nintendo already had their own products out and it never went anywhere. There is a whole other story todo with how the founder spent the investors money but that is a different story. I think the real challenge for the JooJoo will be getting into the market before ChromeOS, Android tablet or iPhone tablet type devices come out.<br><br>BTW I have a retired English friend who spent most of his life in Africa. He uses the phrase JooJoo box to refer to computers as in "I'm never going to use no JooJoo box" :) The crunch pad itself reminds me of a product called Gizmondo.

nice article – though i don't think the PR company did a very good job at all.

It is crisis and damage repair and it didn't achieve it at all. Chandra also played into TC's words exactly. “greed, jealousy…”

Releasing the JooJoo as a Crunchpad resurrection at double the price??? At lease show Fusion Garage as the nice guy, underdog, poor startup that got swindled too somehow.
