It connects to open 802.11b WiFi networks anywhere in the world1. So you can get away from your desk and roam your wireless network. Or step out to a coffee shop while staying in touch with your friends. Or move around your campus from the dorm to library.

The mylo communicator is about fun, convenience and near-instant gratification wherever there's WiFi access. IM is easy because of the built in QWERTY keyboard. There are no monthly service fees.

So you can chat, talk and share with your friends nonstop. And the mylo communicator is made to multitask. You can play your tunes while you IM, email or browse the web! The mylo name stands for My Life Online. And Sony puts it right under your thumbs.
