Last Minute Mother’s Day Gift: The Sony Dash
Catapult your mother into the 21st century with the Sony Dash ($199), an all in one personal internet viewer and futuristic replacement for the traditional alarm clock. It is the perfect Mother’s Day gift, and has a 7 inch color touch screen which your Mom can use to browse information or listen to music in her room, kitchen, or living room. The Dash is positioned as a personal internet viewer which can act as an alarm clock, internet radio, digital photo frame and many other uses. Examples of other apps include news, recipes, calendars, weather, sports, and social networking. Through BRAVIA Internet Video, Dash can bring you TV episodes, films and additional video content and music from providers such as CBS, Netflix, YouTube, Pandora, Slacker and more. That’s pretty amazing.
It has access to more than a thousand applications which can be downloaded onto the device. These are the same “apps” as those supported by the Chumby device.
