The Psion returns! Meet Gemini
We've been here before with Psion-a-likes, but that looks pretty good. Crowd funder is here:

Linn LP12
better surely? I have a Linn Axis that's as good as/better than CD. Yours might need a service
Ah that old chestnut. It's not a case of as good as/better, it comes down to what you prefer the sound of.
I have an LP12, AVI electronics (incl CD player) and ATC speakers. I was an early adopter of CD. I think they knock spots off analogue.
Oh by the way, those great big ugly Comapq "portables" - in the North East they were known as "yuppy bait boxes".
I had a cartridge based handheld games system thing a bit like a game boy but loads better and was sort of articulated in the middle.Was trying to find one online the other day but had no idea what is was called - ring any bells?
Supervision? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watara_Supervision
Pandora? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandora_(console)
B&W or colour? Anything else you can remember about it?
That Gemini ๐ฏ
I would honestly have one ONLY for the proper keyboard.
The cautionary tale here I'm led to believe is that it's the latest project from the people (person?) responsible for the contentious ZX Spectrum Vega+, and I believe also some previous vaporware involving speakers still not delivered after three years. Whilst it looks lovely, I wouldn't be backing it personally.
Orsum telly tonight, just watched the Avengers, then The Persuaders and just pressed record on Hammer House of Horror for tomorrow.
I have no real need nor use for that Gemini but I have an irrational "want" for it at $349

Boom! Quickshot Supervision it was, looked a tiny bit different to that Watara version if I remember correctly. At the time it seemed so much better than my mate's Gameboy that I genuinely believed that despite only being able to buy games in one dodgy backstreet games shop-come-sofa shop it would kill Gameboys off totally!
I do want a new Psion though, my brother had a 5 and we both knew it was awesome but were too young to have anything we actually needed it for.
