Does anyone know of any other phones or portable media devices that might be BETTER than this Mylo?

Yup, it plays video. It has Windows Media Player built in, but I alway use TCPMP instead (much better) - supports the following files;
AVI (*.avi)
Matroska (*.mkv, *.mka)
MP4 (*.mp4, *.m4a)
Ogg Media (*.ogg, *.ogm)
ASF (*.asf)
MP3

...using the follwing compression formats;
Mpeg 1 Layer III
Ogg Vorbis
Musepack
Windows Media Audio
AC-3
AMR
Adpcm, uLaw
DivX
XviD
MPEG4-SP (plus B-frame support)
MPEG1
M-JPEG
Windows Media Video

Screen resolution is 320x240.

Uses miniSD for storage.

There is an updated version of this phone, with a CPU speed thats double the 200Mhz on mine. You'd be better off looking into that one (can't remember the name of it though...www.modaco.com would have more info)

:D

Dude your phone is sweet! :D I cant believe this one slipped by me :o My contracts up soon and I now have an idea what Im getting next! ;) Mylo? Mylo who!? :p

Of course, the non-gaming device is more ergonomic than the gaming device. The PSP could have used those circular edges.

i like the psp better than the mylo in terms of shape...the psp does kinda look like a pad when you look at it sideways :p lol

Mylo = Apple ( in greek )

Sony Apple >.<

lmao thats halarious Malkster :)

This is a terrible idea. If Sony was gonna put out another handheld, it should have been more like a sidekick, where you don't need to be in a hotspot. What a waste of money, how often are you in a hotspot?

it depends if you use it at home, or on the train. at home, theres no problems about hot spots, but on the train or traveling, you might have more trouble. i know this is a portable and the whole point is to use it while traveling, but i dont want to pay to go on the internet.

i would like this if they dropped the price to 100 dollars and had homebrew it would be a second psp wait a minute that dosent make sense:( that sucks

A hundred dollars? Are you guys kidding me? Even the RAZR costs more than $100 and it doesn't even do half of what that can. I think Sony will aim for somewhere closer to $200-$350.
