Red Jade
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Red Jade was Ericsson's unreleased handheld console, intended to compete with the Game Boy Advance. It was supposed to be released in late 2001. Ericsson invested $10 million dollars in the Red Jade, which was supposed to have PDA functions, wireless connectability, DivX movies, cell phone capabilities, a GPS server, a digital camera, MP3 audio playback, a web browser, the ability to download games from the website, and graphics on par with the Sony PlayStation. When their overall sales dived and 22,000 employees were released, Ericsson cancelled the Red Jade to help stay out of the red. It's unclear how many prototype units exist, or if any prototype games were made.
