Last night the ceremony for the 2009 Popular Mechanics Breakthrough Awards was held. The day before, CrunchPad was one of the 10 Most Brilliant Products of 2009. Except the CrunchPad doesn’t exist yet and there were no representatives at the awards ceremony.
In the first post by Michael Arrington that talks about the CrunchPad since announcing the launch prototype in June, he strikes a similarity between him and Barack Obama. Both are capable of “winning of an award based on nothing but an incredible ability to manipulate the press,” Arrington says.
Hey all,
I have been pestering everyone I can about the lack of updates on the Crunchpad, and today, I got a message back from John Biggs simply saying soon.
I posted a blog about it at my site, http://www.armiesofchaos.com
I’m still hopeful that this product will hit the shelves, but I’m beginning to think it may be vaporware… Have you see the enTourage eDge? It is looking promising, and will be at a similar price point…
Well, we all have probably heard the sad news about the official demise of crunchpad.
It’s time to take a closer look at the other contenders out there.
