So what’s all the excitement?
The M70 flash player is available in 2, 4 and 8GB storage capacities. The player’s storage capacity is expandable even further through the use of a memory stick using the provided expansion slot; however, the player’s flash memory size is slightly disappointing. The PMP’s TFT display extends an impressive 4.3 inches of the player making the player a great competitor in the current market.
Audio file format support consists of MP3, WMA, and AAC while video file format support is limited to MPEG-4, AVC, and AVI. Open source activists will feel demoralized by the lack of open format support, yet what should we expect from Sony?
Other unique features incorporated into the player include an Fm tuner, audio/voice recording capabilities, direct video recording, and a built-in speaker. The player’s battery life is admirable with the ability to listen to 20 hours of audio on a single charge. While the media player has a large 4.3 inch screen, one would be inclined to suggest otherwise from its 11.7 by 7.4 by 1.2 cm dimensions.
The M70 is available in a choice of either red or black.
The G70 releases the latest Intel Centrino dual-core processor technology, Intel’s PM965 chipset, 2GB DDR 2-667 dual0channel memory and 120GB SATA high-speed hard disk.
The Transformers-themed notebook PC comes with a 1920 x 1200 pixel 17-inch display, NVIDIA GeForce Go 7950GTX independent graphics with 512MB of VRAM.
Targeting the next generation of audio and development of a technology, the latest Haier laptop is equipped with two modules, 1.5W and 2W with overweight brass artillery, and SRS WOW sound to enhance the sound quality.
The users can also watch HD 1080p HDTV format films but the quality decreases.
The laptop seems do be suitable for home use as it’s not portable.
No word on pricing and availability of the Haier Transformers-themed G70 laptop.
Asus' tiny Internet PC just got a little sweeter. The 7-inch handheld is rumored to be coming out this August for a mere $199. That's less than half the price of the Palm Foleo. There's even rumblings that future versions might have a 3G radio embedded. So between the Foleo and the NanoBook, the Eee PC still has the upper hand in my book.
The Palm Foleo was originally announced this past May and although product details were given no release date was announced other than it was going to be available this summer. The Foleo is currently listed Palm’s website for $600 with a place to sign-up to be notified of release. According to some recent rumors the Foleo is expected to be available on Palm’s website and Palm’s retail stores on August 22nd with Best Buy and similar large retail stores expected to be selling the Foleo in November. Palm is going to be offering $100 rebates during the product launch.

The Foleo is an item that just does not seem to have a market, it should be interesting to see how long the Foleo will last once it is launched. With the $600 price tag it seems my money could be better spent with a cheap laptop.
