Peek, the company that makes the handset, have decided to scrap the product, which was only available in the US, because it’s “seriously old” and the service only has a “handful of users”.

TwitterPeek was launched in 2009, and those “handful of users” aren’t happy, as many of them shelled out $299 for the promise of a lifetime service. Which, in this case, added up to about 28 months.

(Which seems about right in internet years.)
