OMG ! I want one

yes it's nice but trust sony to ONLY include memory stick support
It could atleast support the mass storage protocol, so usb drives could be used as well as Sony memory cards, or even just a multi-card reader.

Quite a nice unit

does it have control over video output resolution? As we all know, K750 is only 3GP and won't play higher res video (such as qvga videos).

Any idea of release date or price?

Considering the limited storage space of a memory stick I think it is safe to say that this piece of junk is for fanboys only.
And since Sony does have a nasty habit of asking for high prices for its less than average junk...

So does it mean only videos can be kept on this MS DUO.So it cannot support mp3 data or jpg images or what?

Eerr theres already something like this, our satelite decoders here have that option to record of satelite! But I think its only SD ... i think.

Here is the official Site
The recorder will sell in Japan for around $210 (£105)
It has two video inputs, each with Composite, S-Video, and RCA audio jacks. The \"Synchro Record\" feature will automatically begin recording when a signal is detected from either input, and it will automatically stop recording when the signal is stopped.
It's also important to note that the recorder supports Japan's new \"Copy Once\" digital content protection scheme, meaning it can record video from digital sources such as digital TV broadcasts.
Recording is done at 320 x 240, at 384kbps or 768kbps. A 1GB Memory Stick PRO Duo should get around 4 hours and 10 minutes at 384kbps, or 2 hours and 20 minutes at 768kbps.

Yes!
But K800 uses M2 cards
You can use an adapter so that's not a problem of course - unless you can't afford to buy a 1GB M2 after shelling out for a K800 and are stuck with the 64MB supplied. Then you can record about 10-20 minutes worth

M2 are supposed to cost the same has current Pro Duo“s...i hope so
Posted by max_wedge
yes, Axxxr claimed the same thing. It would indeed be useful, and I will definitely wait until I see whether my next phone is M2 based or not before buying any more memory cards. Say for example I decide to get the K800 (likely, for the camera), by the time the phone is out I'll be wanting to buy a 1 GB card atleast, so similar pricing will be a bonus.
However the news stories I read claim the M2 will be the price of CURRENT duo prices, meaning that Duo's will start to drop drastically in price after M2 comes out, while the M2's will stay at the same level. So in effect, M2 will end up more expensive than Duo. That's my guess anyway
