Wired magazine had an outstanding and beautifully illustrated story on the rise and fall of Gizmondo a few issues ago. Not only was the story totally better than fiction, but the dark, dark graphic-novel style illustrations really made the story pop. A real gem, better in print than online, but see whichever version you can.

At any rate, a recent trade show booth auction that popped up serves as a nice additional tombstone/reminder of the giant vapor-implosion big bang that the company ultimately represented.
