i mean, dell makes some good PC's for the price, so we'll have to see if they can do anything in the gaming network...]]>Jan 31st 2007 4:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/Jan 31st 2007 7:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/Jan 31st 2007 8:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/
you are an idiot. That is stated right in the article. Next tyme try reading before you spout off some stupid ass comment.]]>Feb 1st 2007 9:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/
Shit, I like that idea!

They could have it run a stripped down vista, connect via USB, firewire, n-draft, whatever and then have games that would normally install on a PC install on the handheld.]]>Jan 31st 2007 4:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/Jan 31st 2007 7:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/
1. License the DS form factor.
2. Make the top screen a widescreen with 300 ppi hi-res display.
3. 60 GB of space (hard disk?)
4. Top face should be foldable to face outward like in some tablet PC designs. Except much sturdier. This would mean it can be used for playing video. But also it means the top face would have to gain touchscreen ability.

That leaves you with emulation (not the sort of bucket of worms a big-name computer company is going to want to get into) or exclusive titles (good luck in signing a lot of big-name developers for such a device).
At best, I could see a PDA / Media Player / ect. that also has some gaming controls, but I doubt they would come out with a dedicated gaming device.]]>Jan 31st 2007 9:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/Feb 1st 2007 6:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/May 9th 2007 9:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/
Well, I might as well think of my dream gaming device that Dell could make: a 624 MHz processor, touch screen capability, dual analog nubs, D-pad, SD slot for add-on capacity, a built-in keypad (for touch typing), Windows Mobile 5.0 etc. In essence it would be the core of an Z51V, but with the PSP's screen (4.3" TFT LCD screen, only with touch screen technology), the DS's shape, the PSP's analog nub design (x2), a keyboard, and a D-pad. When not gaming, one could use it as a pocket PC, just like the X51V.

I really hope Dell makes an affordable UMPC, though. Mmmm]]>Feb 6th 2007 5:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/31/dell-working-on-a-gaming-handheld/Feb 6th 2007 5:33AM
