Some other shinning features of the Sony Mini VAIO are wireless LAN & WAN, 4.5inch touch-screen, sliding keyboard and Windows Vista Basic. As being the first flash memory based VAIO the price tag comes in just at $2,500 USD - WOW.

So it appears Toshiba and Oakley have teamed together to bundle one hell of a cell phone package. Take the Toshiba 911T multimedia slider cell phone and integrate Softbank’s OS for Bluetooth communication with Oakley glasses, this is what you get.

Digital TV, 3.2pm anti-shake camera with auto-focus, 3 inch wide VGA screen (480×480) MicroSD slot for another 2GB of storage on-top of the already liberal 1GB of internal storage and MS office reader for docs, pdfs etc. Thanks Toshiba!

There isn’t much this skinny Razor from Motorola can’t do. With enhanced messaging capabilities and airplane flight mode to listen to music while high in the sky it makes things that much better with the MicroSD slot for expanded memory. That trip from LA to NY never seemed shorter.

Most other specs are in-line with the traditional Razor we’ve all come to love. Cingular is lucky enough to not only lock in the iPhone but the MOTOKRZR model too.
