Device

[MacRumors]

With the hype reaching insane levels, everything becomes suspect... iPoding.com (http://www.ipoding.com) has screen captures (http://www.ipoding.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=56&mode=thread&order=0) from Woz's desk-cam of an unindentified handheld device taken Jan 2, 2002.

Can anyone identify this object?

Looks like one of those gold colored gameboys. I wouldn't think it's anything.

It sure looks like a GameBoy....but I didn't know they made gold ones?

Plus, don't u guys think this would be too easy?! How convenient would it be to get hold of pics of Woz playing with a new Apple handheld device with all the speculations flying around?

It IS a gameboy. A friend of mineo has one in gold.
It looks the same as in the pictures.

Thank god no pda.

It's a GameBoy. Steve said recently on The Screen Savers from Tech TV. That he wants to beat the record of 750,000 points on tetris. The guy loves games like that he used to send letters to Nintendo Power Magazine. It's nothing more than a GameBoy.

Havent you guys notice that HUGE LCD! It's like twice the size of the cinema...

[eyelikeart]

I honestly wish we didn't have to hear about Apple PDA's anymore...

If we don't see one next week then it should be perfectly clear that it's a dead issue...

[spuncan]

Im almost positive thats a year 2000 Gameboy Ihave one and it looks just like that you can even see the gray cartridge on the back. Sorry guys its not a apple product.

It certainly is a Gameboy. The Danger device is different. Go here:

LOL!!! THERE ARE TWO SITES HYPING THIS THING AND THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THIS IS?1?!?!?!

Well here's what I think it is...

I would have ot say that this is a highly technical expandable device made for personal portable entertainment, typically called a GAMEBOY.

;-P

[mischief]

Yeah, I think the screens in these shots are far more interesting than the Gameboy. Does anyone know what the Titanium coloured one on the left is?

[thecube84]

what's wrong with you people?

"oh... it's an igo"

"it's apple's new PDA"

FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING GOOD AND DECENT IN THIS WORLD IT'S A GAMEBOY, he's probably playing TETRIS

[j763]

um... sorry to dissapoint, it's a gameboy... i don't think we're going to see the release of gold gameboys at macworld somehow....

[mischief]

but (I repeat) does anyone know what the monitor on the left is?

[iwantanewmac]

IT's agameboy!

who said that that was huge screen?
that's why it is called a cinema display.
And yes. that one's HUGE!

[rice_web]

The mere fact that you can legibly read "Gameboy COLOR" on the device might help.

[iwantanewmac]

I saw rumors on the net of Apple teaming up with nintendo. (no joke) A game cube?

[sparkleytone]

lol you people sometimes!

that is a standard cinema display...it IS that HUGE.

as for the other LCD, it is either a 170MP or a 171MP, made by samsung. 17" LCD and is NOT titanium in color...comeon people be smart.
