The MoMA Eve was a handheld gaming console presented by Via at E3 2004.[5] It was supposed to play PC games as well as games designed for it. The player would have had to purchase a SIM Card to play purchased games on it. The buttons look like the buttons on an average video game controller with a D-pad on the left, four action buttons on the right, one Start button in the middle, and two analog sticks. It had a 533 MHz processor, a 20GB hard drive for games and movies, Wi-Fi, and a CF slot. It also had TV-OUT. The console encountered a trademark issue in mid-2004.[6] The system was never released and is considered vaporware.
