During the presentation on their new Mscape technology, he sounds like this. I think you have got me! Not yet? Ok! Hewlett-Packard is stepping in the gaming handheld market as they have expressed their desire to develop gaming handhelds.

The world's largest IT Corporation Hewlett-Packard (HP) has informed that their handheld technology will take advantage of GPS navigation and accelerometers, similar like Nintendo has employed in its next0-gen console Wii.

HP wants players to play in a quite interactive and realistic environment.

As Tom Krazit has said that the early concept involves a handheld and a series of small sensors that a game organizer could lay out around a city or park triggering certain events in the game (a bonus level or an attack by the bad guys) based on a small demonstration of the concept.

HP is the second amongst PC developers after Dell to step in gaming world and for sure the gamers can see the glimpses of a bright gaming future, close at hand.
