With ultra mobile pcs and netbooks becoming the must have gadget for staying connected on the move, you can understand why a brand would revamp a product for this market.
This is Sony's Mylo 2, which has been known as the personal communicator until now. Its been rumored that the company has begun branding the gadget an "Internet Device". 
You may remember Sony's Mylo 2 (aka Personal Communicator) circa 2006, the little gadget may have not had the success that is deserved. In today's UMPC market an internet device is what the consumer wants, not a Communicator…smart move Sony.
Time will tell what effect this rebranding will have on the sales of Mylo 2, but thinking of my brother who bought the same razor just because they changed the color…anything is possible.
