This was a totally boring announcement until I read this.

Damn that's cheap for 32 GB storage.

That is pretty weird. The Commodore Pet is the computer I first used in 1979!!

@scottalanmiller Yeah, but it is the new and improved PET. 8-) A whole 32GB of storage... Think of how many of the original PETs you could cram into that. 8-)

It actually has Commodore 64 and Amiga emulators included with it. Now that is pretty weird.

@Reid-Cooper Now I'll be able to play my favorite Jeopardy edition without having to wait for a tape to rewind or fast forward every 5 minutes.

Price is a kind expensive for what is is. You can get much better spec phones cheaper.
