Product Description
Today Sony drew a bead on the portion of the youth market which is hopelessly addicted to instance messaging by announcing the mylo personal communicator, a new handheld device which combines Wi-Fi capabilities with QWERTY-enabled instant messaging, VoIP capabilities, Web browsing, photo and video display, and (of course) a music player. The mylo—which stands for My Life Online—wants to be the new "must-have" device, unseating the famously-trendy Sidekick.
As a device, the mylo sports a 2.4-inch 320 by 240 LCD display, 1 GB of flash memory (supposedly upgradable to 4 GB), mini-USB connectivity, a Memory Stick Duo slot (after all, this is a Sony product!), integrated 802.11b wireless networking (supporting WEP and WPA-PSK) security), and a lithium-ion battery offering up to 45 hours of music playback, 8 hour of video time, and up to 3.5 hour sof VoIP talk time. Add to that a DC input for charging or running "wired" with the AC adapter, a 10-pin headphone/microphone interface (an adapter is included), a slide-out QWERTY keyboard for composing your messages lickety-split, and a total weight of aout 5.3 ounces, including battery.
