The Sony Mylo 2 is a WiFi dependent device, so if you're not near a lot of hot spots (college campus, city, etc), it won't work too well. On the other hand, if you are, you then have the ability to make Skype calls and surf the web using the Mylo's hi-res screen and slide-out keyboard, which might make this gadget very attractive to a lot of people.
Implications - The Mylo communicator comes equipped with Adobe Flash Lite 3 software, so you will have access to video sites such as YouTube.

The Mylo communicator has a 1.3-megapixel camera, instant messaging applications and a "Facebook notifier" that lets you know when you have an update. The nifty gadget comes with 1GB of internal memory and will be able to play and store all of your favorite tunes.
