Sony S1 has 2 cameras and it supports DLNA to allow streaming of media from the tablet to other devices. The wedge design will make it easier to hold.
The next one is Sony S2 that has 2, 5 1/2 inch screens. You can use the screens together and even run separate apps on each. The screens boast of 1024×480 pixels each and it has an ergonomic cylindrical shape when folded. S2 will also use the NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor. The tablets will be ready for 3G and 4G when it arrives in stores by fall. The prices are quite steep but still unconfirmed.
