PCG-U101

Sony Japan has launched the PCG-U101 palmtop. The fact that it can be held as a book and navigated with 4-way thumb controllers is intriguing. Also, the controllers look like they might work better than the ones incorporated in the more limited PCG-U1. If it came with a stylus and a touch screen it might be an alternative of sorts to the Tablet PC.
