In further proof that Widgets are now a commodity and also work as a lure for personal devices, the Sony Mylo 2 now got it`s own Widget Platform and Widget Network.
Starting this March Developer will be able to register into the Mylo Widget Platform and upload their Widgets into the Mylo widget Network.
The Widgets will be XML based according to the now scarce documentation but given the mock up shots it is clear that thanks to the kind of device in questions widgets will be able to be more powerful than those in most cellphones and up in par to High End Symbian and Windows Mobile Smart Phones.
Even then, this new interest for Widgets is not something someone would have expected from Sony but it is clear that the pressure put by Nokia and Samsung along the expected redesign of the Sidekick (mylo si the direct competitor) now that Danger has been bought by Microsoft is what made Sony to respond with this bold move.
Now the only question is if this Widget Network will remain only on the Mylo, my guess is that not and it is just being used and the perfect devise to set up the initial stages of a Sony branded Widget Platform and Network. so i will be not surprised if this widgets spread over to the PSP and even make a jump to SE in the near future.
