I know, it's not a product based on anything Parallax, but...

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2084212109/gameduino-2-this-time-its-personal

It's a cheap gaming platform, and it's 18 Hours until end of financing.
(Way over target already)

Also, Fred Dart, CEO of FTDI has pledged at the 'SDCards for all' level which means EVERYONE gets a 4GB uSD card preloaded with SW.
$59 gets you a Shield with a 4.3" touch screen, uSDcard slot and 3axis accelerometer.
(Add $14 for hipping outide of the USA)
$91 also gets you an Arduino preloaded with SW and a printed manual.
(Only ships in the USA)

EDIT:
Seems this thing uses SPI for communication, so can in theory be hooked up to a BS2 or Propeller.
(In theory. I haven't checked if there are timing issues or anything else that can foul it)

    It looks to be plug-in compatible with the Propeller ASC+. I've backed it and will be getting one on release.
