argh…..if it can recieve calls, then it would be agreat product. i’m really contemplating whether i should buy this or not. like, can it go to any site? or should i save my money for a laptop? because a laptop can do all of this, but it’s just smaller. gahhh…but i really want just because it lookes really cool..

maybe i should just buy a phone that can do all of thsi, but hte damn phones don’t even have wi-fi. but the mylo sounds so cool!!!!!

wat should i do?

for 100 this thing kicks iphones asss!! all over the place
does internet music, psp video will convert for free really tricky though
skype is awsome practically free, 3 dollars a month unlimited everything, no im not kidding check it out for real

catch= sony’s bane, memory sticks
only works where theres b wifi, g and n wont work although most routers do all three or two

In short, the Mylo is realistically useless. Seattle is nearly blanketed in Wifi throughout the downtown area, yet 75% of the time, the Mylo was unable to acquire a signal for any of the open hotspots provided by the transit lines, non-profit groups, office networks, or even Starbucks hotspots. I acknowledge the fact that device performance varies from scenario to scenario but what I experienced was completely despicable.

The unit as a handy messaging device? Blech. I’m sorry, but why did Sony ensure that users are aware the device is connected with a pulsing blue light without making sure to offer a back-lit keyboard? Forget using this thing in the dark. Think you’re a touch-typist pro? You’ll slam this device into the wall. Just look at how the device looks with the lights off – http://flickr.com/photos/0401/280458209/

I’ll give Sony credit for creating a decent Skype handset though. Forget using the hands-free kit while moving though. The mic is extremely sensitive meaning that if the wire – not the mic itself – is rubbing against your clothes, both yourself and the caller will hear it. My personal opinion? A $400 Skype handset is not worth it. Not to mention plug-in play is non-existent when I had the device on OS X.

Also, does anyone else in NYork have a differing account of the WiFi reception?

As for the sonic stage, yes it sucks, don’t use it. I would be more worried about: Why does PSP support AAC, but Mylo doesn’t?

The most confusing comment here is about the Wifi. “Most Networks are G” seems a bit … statistically lacking. Most _home_ network maybe are G now, but a lot of larger scale networks (colleges, etc.) are made up of B nodes that aren’t going to be changed any time soon. Most of the G Access Points also support B, so I don’t see what the problem is? (For example, my apple airport supports both G and B). What’s more, B is more than fast enough for Skype, which is probably the most bandwidth intensive aspect of the Mylo, so why would they support G and raise the price further?

At any rate, someone who posted was right in saying it is half-assed in some respects. If I buy it, it will to be a skype phone, because it looks like it would be better at that than the other skype phones. I don’t care much about the web browsers, etc.
