Infinium Labs gaming console, the 'Phantom' was a no-show at this years E3 show, and it sounds like the company needs a $11.5 million dollar investment to stay alive.
On April 20, the company filed a report with the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that another $11.5 million is required before a launch can go ahead.

But in an interview with US website tradersnation.com last week, Infinium president Kevin Bachus stated that the Phantom will indeed launch in the US “later this year.”
He went on to say the company was confident of the machine’s money-spinning potential, identifying “three streams of revenue” – the hardware, the content and the subscription fee.
