Infinium Labs finally releases the Phantom Lapboard

After six years of highly-entertaining internet drama, Phantom Entertainment (nee Infinium Labs) have finally released their first product: the Phantom Lapboard. Back in the halcyon days of gadget gossip, the Lapboard was to be the controller-of-choice for the mythical Phantom Console... a console which, as everyone knows, was ultimately proven as vaporous as an ectoplasmic bottom blast. Regardless, a Bronx Cheer for Phantom Entertainment for finally getting their Lapboard to market. You sure did hang in there, kitty.

A swiveling keyboard with a bottom tray for using a wireless mouse, Maximum PC reviewed the Lapboard in April, and said the keyboard was a little bit of alright, but the mouse was decidedly wimpy. At $129, then, this is probably a product for game historians only.

The company that was going to, like, totally reinvent gaming has given us... the inclined plane. Whoa.
