* Headphone Input(s) : headset: 10 pin flat jack (16 ohms)

* Memory Stick® Media Slot : Memory Stick PRO Duo™ Expansion Slot

Networking/Modem

These 3 features killed the deal

iwearnosox said:Weird device. Mediocre at 20 things, great at none.

Well, 8 hour video playback's pretty decent.

I agree medicore at best. BUT it's 1/3 the cost of competitors. Just depends what you are looking for, I didn't even know this product existed until now.

Had one of these for all of two days.
Typical Sony product: developed by engineers for...engineers.
Not worth even at this price IMHO.
The newer model looks better but it's also more expensive.

What they should have done is add a keyboard to the PSP. The PSP can do most of the things that mylo can do with the added benefit of games. It could have just been an incremental update (like the slim version) and it would have been much more popular than this thing.

Please explain what the network modem does with this wifi devise? Can you connect it to a dialup phone & like wyflyer?
