This is an iPod touch, with expandable memory, a camera, a proper browser, skype and a keyboard!!! ]]>Jan 6th 2008 7:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 7:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 7:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 7:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 7:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/what this device have more than ipod touch? (except from flash support)

it doesn't run 3rd party apps (ipod touch will run them officially after february)
it has only 1 Gb
the interface is the past generation
so what makes people buy this and not ipod touch?]]>Jan 6th 2008 7:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 7:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/

As for the music player, Toshiba Gigabeat T series and Sony Walkman NWZ-A818 or NWZ-S series have have industry's best SNR. If this Mylo2 matches these two products from Toshiba and Sony Walkman, then I am going to pick this one.]]>Jan 6th 2008 8:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/I work for SonyStyle and sat in on a training a couple days ago. This new mylo is freakin sweet.

And they will support 3rd party widgets. It will come with a YouTube and Facebook widget, and has a cool indicator light on the side that lights when something is updated (ie. someone posts on your facebook wall).

Another thing that nobody mentioned is the backlit keyboard. There's a sensor that detects when its dark and turns on the backlight. ]]>Jan 6th 2008 8:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 8:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/

THIS IS NOT A CELLPHONE!!!!


Uggh..]]>Jan 6th 2008 8:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/
These products from Sony still show 'silos' where product groups do not talk to each other. How could PSP get Skype and not this thing?

I read a Mylo 2 review complete with battery tests earlier today but I forgot where I saw it.]]>Jan 6th 2008 9:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 10:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/

but can someone explain to me like the "main" point of this. i mean the device looks cool and all.. but what do you use it for.

+music
+video
+internet
+skype
+widgets

like is it basically an multimeadia device? ]]>Jan 6th 2008 8:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 9:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/
A little gizmo like this is safer and more portable.

The review I read said the Google Redaer and Docs did not work. I hope Sony fixes that soon. ]]>Jan 6th 2008 9:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 10:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 9:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 6th 2008 9:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/

Probably the biggest difference is the free Wifi until 2010, but you'll have to spend a lot of time at McD's for that.]]>Jan 6th 2008 9:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/

If I can *only* use this in a WiFi area, that kind of sucks.
2) How good/bad/fast/slow is the web browser? That 800-pixel-wide screen won't matter much for browsing if the browser itself sucks.
3) It looks like the touchscreen is only there for pressing those soft buttons on the edges. Why not just make those hard buttons? And what's with the stick? That looks like it could be uncomfortable to use.
4) No possibility of developing apps for it? That's a big negative.]]>Jan 6th 2008 11:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/Jan 7th 2008 4:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/06/sonys-new-mylo-2-now-official/
What's the point of this crappy device?? It's $300. It's only 1 GB. It doesnt play games. It doesnt have cell phone capability (browsing when away from accessible wifi is the whole point of why I would need a portable browser).

Someone above said this is the problem with product silos within companies. Clearly Sony must have this thing going on. It's really simple Sony .. make me a phone with GPS, and that 800x480 touchscreen .. Reduce it's width so there is no margin between the LCD edge and surrounding (if iPhone managed it why cant you -- phones shouldnt be overly wide). Decent camera would be nice too.

Also, it's not a cellphone. Go check the N810. It's also not a cellphone. Do you know what MID stands for? Mobile Internet Device.

Yeah the ps3/spiderman/sony type of font gives it a feeling of being fast...Know that sounds pretty dumb but I cant shake the feeling of it being a fast device.
