Gizmondo Europe announced that it has selected Flextronics, the world's leading Electronics Manufacturing Services provider, as a new volume manufacturer for the company's multi-entertainment device, Gizmondo. The eagerly-anticipated handheld gaming console is expected to launch in the United Kingdom later this year and in the United States in early 2005. By utilizing
Flextronics' high-volume manufacturing capabilities and global reach, Tiger Telematics expects to bring more units-to-market by Q1 2005 then originally planned.
Flextronics, an established leader in design engineering, as well as manufacturing, will be responsible for volume manufacturing the device and providing strategic operational services to help Gizmondo achieve time-to-market objectives while minimizing overall procurement, materials and manufacturing costs.
The Gizmondo, powered by Microsoft Windows CE.net platform, boasts a 2.8-inch TFT colour screen with a Samsung ARM900 400MHz processor and incorporates 64-bit graphics accelerator. It provides cutting-edge gaming, multimedia messaging, a MP3 music player, Mpeg4 movie playing capability, a digital camera and a GRPS network link to allow wide-area network gaming. It
also contains a GPS chip for location based services and it is equipped with Bluetooth for use in multi-player gaming.
