Panasonic Jungle, a Portable Linux-based MMORPG Console

“If you love playing MMORPG and other online games, then you may
like the Panasonic Jungle. This portable game console is probably
the first handheld device that runs online games and MMORPGs
exclusively. The Panasonic Jungle comes after 15 years since the
release of the already extinct 3DO game console. This is like a
huge gamble by Panasonic since the market is now saturated with
variety of portable gaming devices like the Sony PSP, Nintendo DS,
and the Apple iPhone/iPod Touch.

“Although details of the Panasonic Jungle’s specifications and
features are not yet released, several credible sources have told
us that it will run Linux. The device is said to be cloud-centric,
and aside from online gaming, it may include features for video
content creation. The only game that is said to be onboard at the
moment is Battlestar Galactica Online.”
