>> What's up guys. Brian Tong here with CNET.com at CES2009. I have first look here at the Sony Cybershot G3. Now, this is a 10 mega pixel camera. It has four gigs of internal storage and a nice 3.5 inch touch screen on the back. But what really makes a difference is its wi-fi capability. Now, you do have a wi-fi chip in here, but what another thing is cool is it has web browser functionality. Now, that doesn't' mean you can surf the web, but what it does is it makes it really easy to connect to multiple wireless sites. You know some of them are password protected, so it's hard to get into it. This makes it easy to do. Now, this camera sleek design is black. Has a nice kind of classy finish on it. It will be available for 499 online around February, but if you walk into Sony stores right now, you can get it. There you have it. At first look at Sony Cybershot G3. ^M00:00:44 [ Music ]
