"In September, Sony expects to ship a Linux- and Qtopia-based handheld device featuring WiFi connectivity, an Opera web browser, and a variety of text- and voice-messaging clients and media players. The Mylo -- short for "My Life Online" -- will be available in black or white, priced at $350.
Despite its relatively high price, the Mylo will not include cell phone capabilities. Nor will it apparently offer compatibility with marketshare-leading instant message services from AOL and Microsoft.
On the upside, the device is expected to support VoIP and instant message services available from Google Talk, Skype, and Yahoo! Additionally, the Mylo will include nearly a gig of user file storage, expandable via Memory Stick, along with players for MP3s, ATRAC, WMA, and MP4 video.
The Mylo measures 1 x 4.8 by 2.5 inches, and sports a 2.4-inch QBVGA (320 x 240) LCD screen. It supports 802.11b networking, with WEP and WPA encryption. Text entry is done through a retractable thumb keyboard."
