Phantom Beta Testing

[digitalpress]

To those of you who applied to test this "Phantom" system, did you receive one of these e-mails yet? Do you really think this system is going to launch?

RE: PHANTOM BETA TESTER LAUNCH

If you received this email, it means we have successfully received your application to Beta Test the Phantom Gaming Console™. .

Dear Beta Tester Applicants,

We wanted to thank you for taking the time to fill out our Beta Tester Applications. We have received over 40k applicants for the US and Canada so far. Our Beta launch is expected to take place in October and we will choose 300 of the most qualified testers to test our device and provide Infinium Labs critiques about how we can improve our service.

Each applicant needed to be a US or Canadian citizen, be at least 13 years of age and already have a broadband connection to the Internet. If you are selected you will receive a email asking you to come fill out our Beta Contract which will be emailed to you in September 2003. We will notify everyone when the applicants have been chosen.

We will be launching the international beta testing in late 2004 and also adding on more US and Canadian testers around this time, so we will keep your information on file for future needs.

Again, thanks for your time, and stay tuned of our latest development. We are building The Phantom Gaming Console™ with the help and advice of those who know best and take every comment and critique very seriously.

Best Regards,
Timothy Munro Roberts
Chairman and CEO

I recieved two emails (both with different subject lines) but they both said the same thing. Even if it does get off the ground, I think it will crash shortly after. I don't think casual gamers are up for it yet.

I have actually not recieved this email yet. I hope I didn't accidentally delete it, but then again it doesn't seem important if I did.

Yes, I applied as well, and got nothing yet. Bah. I'm probably going to resubmit.
