Sony taps instant message crowd
Sony is to release a wireless-enabled, handheld device aimed at young people who use instant messaging (IM).
The pocked-sized gadget, called the mylo, will sell for about $350 (£183), according to the Associated Press.
It has a small display and keyboard and is pitched at the young, mainstream market who use IM and are interested in making net telephone calls.
Sony has formed a partnership with Skype for net phone calls and with Yahoo and Google for instant messaging.
