In areas blanketed with open 802.11b networks, such as college campuses, the mylo could easily replace most students’ cell phones (and monthly plans) and IM devices, not to mention their lower-end MP3 players and PMPs.

If you want to talk on the go, the mylo has Skype built in, too. Is all of that enough for youngsters to give the ever-popular Sidekick the boot? Yes, if they (or their parents) have a lot of dough.

The flashy design will ensure that you look cool when you pull mylo out of your cargo pants pocket or your backpack. Quite a few heads turned when we showed it off, not only younger folks but older as well. But the coolness comes at a high price, $349.95.
