(sidenote, the term troll gets thrown around too much now.)

Anyways, this looks pretty cool, and I'm down with some *free* 3G game downloads, but it's gonna be sweet when we all have networked gaming over LTE..

Zeebo: R$499]]>May 26th 2009 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 4:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/
That's why people buy lots of unlocked consoles from Paraguay and such. But the smugglers know that the demand is high, that's why a Wii reaches R$ 800-1000 here, against R$1200-1500 at the legal channels.

And US$ 1 is R$ 2.02 right now. The Zeebo costs around R$ 200, actually]]>May 26th 2009 4:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 4:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 27th 2009 7:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/
I think this is a videogame targeted at very poor people on very poor markets... That's the most of the BRIC market alright, but then the price is just out... Here in Brazil you can find a PS2 with a mod chip for the same price, and buy pirated games for R$10,00 each. I don't think people would change a PS2 for the Zeebo just to be on the legal side.]]>May 26th 2009 2:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/BTW: the current USD/BRL rate is 2.02 BRL]]>May 26th 2009 1:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 8:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 2:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 3:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/for this public, zeebo is a killer machine ;)]]>May 26th 2009 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/May 26th 2009 1:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/zeebo-lands-in-brazil-inspires-revolutionary-fervor-in-the-hear/And since we have all this "Brazil news" today, I thought I would bring it up once more: when’s Engadget Brazil coming??????
