The CrunchPad is dead. Long live the JooJoo. We met with Fusion Garage founder and CEO, Chandra Rathakrishnan, in downtown Manhattan today, to get some hands-on time with the JooJoo–the Web-based tablet that was known to the public as the CrunchPad until Fusion Garage and TechCrunch editor, Michael Arrington, had a very public falling out. Well, mostly public: Arrington has largely stopped talking about the device since he unleashed the threat of severe litigation.
Fusion Garage, for its part, has been having a field day. The company has been traveling across the country, holding video conferences, and showing off the device to anyone in the press who will listen. In fact, we’ve met with Rathakrishnan one two different coasts now–our news editor, Mark Hachman, got some hands-on time with the tablet earlier in the week in San Francisco.
