It certainly seemed like Ugobe was dead-forever a few days ago when we noted that the company’s website was seemingly gone and no one was answering the phones, but it’s apparently not all bad: the site’s back up, and CEO Caleb Chung told the Idaho Business Review today that the company will respond in an “organized way” with a press release coming in the “next few weeks.” Uh, okay, but that isn’t going to distract anyone from the half-million lawsuit just filed that alleges Pleo and Co. are in breach of contract for failure to pay supplier Arrow Electronics. We’ll see how it plays out — something tells us Pleo’s gonna have a hard time dodging this meteor.
