If released, sixth or seventh generation (depending on release date)Ĭanceled release promised in November 2004, January, March and September 2005 In August 2007, Phantom Entertainment signed an agreement with ProGames Network to provide Lapboards and "game-service content" in hotels worldwide. In June 2008, the company released the Lapboard. In September 2006 the company (which had changed its name from Infinium Labs) promised to introduce its Phantom Lapboard product in November 2006, with a gaming service to follow in March 2007. Subsequent CEOs included Kevin Bachus (who took the post in August 2005), Greg Koler (in January 2006) and John Landino, who was appointed CEO and interim chief financial officer in July 2008.
He later rejoined as chairman of the board, but in a July 2007 press release he again resigned from the company. Roberts left the company in summer 2005 (with millions of shares of stock) before any products had been delivered.
The Phantom placed first in Wired News 's "Vaporware 2004". The hardware and gaming site HardOCP researched and wrote an extensive article on the company and its operation, and was sued in turn. Due to the use of buzzwords and the lack of details, the product was derided nearly from the beginning by news sites such as IGN and Slashdot and in the Penny Arcade webcomic. The press release had no specific information, but included a computer-generated prototype design. In January 2003 it issued a press release saying that it would soon release a "revolutionary new gaming platform" with an on-demand video-game service, delivering games through an online subscription.
