Gizmondo Europe announced an official UK street date of March 19th for Gizmondo to coincide with the opening of its London’s store.
Gizmondo will also be available through selected retail partners in the UK on the same day.
As well as demonstrating the incredible power and functionality of the Gizmondo device at the premier London venue, the store (located across the road from Hamley’s) will be playing host to other amazing technologies, like a low-frequency sound generator and a huge 3D plasma TV display. A major launch event is planned in conjunction with the store opening, details of which will follow shortly.
The GBP229 (inc VAT) launch package will include the Gizmondo, a standard 1100mAh battery and mains charger, contract-free SIM card, an SD card containing music, game and movie demos, in-the-ear headphones, driver software and a 1.75m USB cable. Games will be priced at three levels: GBP9.99, GBP19.99, and GBP29.99.
The new entrant into the handheld gaming market, Gizmondo will be ramping up the production as quickly as possible to help retailers satisfy customer demand.
Carl Freer, Managing Director, Gizmondo, says: “Gizmondo is the British challenger in a market that will witness a spectacular boom this year. We’ve been able to introduce exciting new features like GPS into gaming, and with such a remarkable list of features, the Gizmondo is the most powerful, feature-laden piece of multi-entertainment hardware available.”
