Sony’s soon to be released Dash is now available for pre-order directly from Sony. The personal internet viewing device is going for $200 and really picked up some traction a few weeks back once it was announced that you could stream NetFlix.
Will this be direct competitor for Apple’s iPad? With the functionality not as robust as Apple’s jumbo iPod Touch I think Sony lovers will flock to this, especially since the advent of the streaming TV feature.
Units will start shipping out just before or around April 15th.
