Level
Longboat Key, Florida - June 18, 2003 –– Infinium Labs announced today
that that it is accepting applications for the public beta test of its
Phantom game console and service. Successful applicants must be at
least 13 years old and reside either in the United States or Canada.
Applicants must register online at www.phantom.net.

The requirements will be that you must have broadband access with at
least 1Mbps downstream connection into your home or office via your
Dedicated Internet Access, cable, satellite or DSL provider with an
Ethernet handoff. Applicants will be required to provide feedback on
the service and system. We are looking for hard-core to moderate
gamers with basic computer knowledge in the gaming arena.

The goal of the public beta process is to have 100 or more experienced
gamers test the Phantom next generation game console that supports
games on demand, game rentals, game demos, seamless upgrades and patch
management. At launch, the Phantom will be the fastest console on the
market and will include a broad selection of pre-loaded games, games
on-demand and game rentals. We expect our Beta launch to begin in Q4
2003.

The game console is an "always on broadband device" which will allow
gamers a wealth of options, from wireless connectivity to massive
multiplayer capability to allowing gamers to demo games before
purchasing or subscribing.

Infinium Labs expects to unveil the Phantom to public audiences for
the first time in late summer at the Ultimate Gamers Expo - August
15-17th, 2003.

I dunno, it could be real... At least the domain and IP# claim to have
been registered to Infinitum Labs.

If they're very close to releasing the product, they could be ready to do
a larger public beta program, but 100 sounds awfully small. Considering how
dependent this thing is going to be on the internet, you'd think they'd
want at least 1000 testers scattered around the nation.
