Ooh la la! This is a nice looking Clie right here, yes sir. The PEG-VZ90 is sort of cross between a Palm PDA and a portable media player, as it's designed mainly to play back video on its 3.8-inch OLED screen. And although it doesn't have a built-in hard drive, it does have a CompactFlash bay (No MemoryStick?!) and an in-built Wi-Fi module, so you could stream data from a PC or DVR, presumably.

The best part of the VZ90 is probably it's screen, though, with a 1000:1 contrast ratio and a design that keeps pixels off when the color is black, making a power-efficient unit that can playback MPEG4 and MPEG1 for up to 12 hours at a time.

It's Japan-only, of course. Sony doesn't sell the Clie here anymore.
