    Hey guys,

    I had a chance to visit VAIO World 2004 in Odaiba and play with the new Sony U70/P. While fumbling with the device I made videos of both English and Japanese Explanations as well as Japanese demonstration. As always the videos are very rough and amateurish so please don?ft expect much. However I think you will find the videos useful if you intend to purchase one in the future. You can find links to the other movies I took at my website: www.kurnspatrick.com

    Regards,

    Thank you for that video!! It was cool to see the U70 actually in action. It looked fairly responsive as your were navigating through the menus. I've been seriously debating whether to get this machine. Yeah, it's a niche product, but it's funky as hell!! With the touch screen capabilities, I see myself ditching my iPaq...although I do like the biometrics on my 5555. It's going to be a hard choice and either way, someone isn't going to be happy (me for not getting it, or my wife for getting it).
