@xperiajunkie right.. and that news was about 30 pages ago. and that post clearly states they only speculate it uses the neonode tech.. not that it definitely does.
like i said above, based on my understanding of optical touch screens, a border is required to shoot the IR light over the screen creating a light field, which when disrupted, allows a camera to detect the disruption. since it's not based on capacitive tech or pressure, touch can be detected with almost any device. if they use neonode, then great. i just hope they figured out how to do it without having a raised border/bezel around the screen.

@Moogoo fair enough but it at least sounds like their tech be used in the Togari and with Sony being in a partnership with them for sometime and the fact they are implementing their tech into android this year I suppose I should of said it is an educated guess my bad

A Sony Phablet?! Disgustingly SICK!!!
Ok but what uniqueness to the phablet or smartphone market will Sony bring?! That would be the key vs just the hardware specs alone considering the N.American (driven by the USA mainly) market is any indication of success (XZ/XZL as any indication).
I'm very curious ... does anyone feel Sony should be venturing into the phablet market? Area for growth is huge, but the perception of viability is pretty much focused on Samsung alone. Actually are they any real players other than samsung??

Nope, not really other than the "also-ran" products from LG and a few others and by the looks of things, there won't be any real threats either to the Galaxy Note phablets anytime soon, not until maybe Apple comes in or Nokia and MS manage to create some sort of Lumia Phablet heavily focused on MS Office.

Sony isn't big in the USA not because of shortcomings of its 1h flagships, but its prioritising other markets, as they even said.
Impatience, lol. Right now, Samsung don't have any competition in the phablet market, ask here again in just under 2 weeks and I'm certain most will say the Z ultra.
USPs? If the phablet market is currently owned by Samsung, and Sony release a product in it, then automatically a good design and build quality. If it's waterproof, that too (I wonder how long it takes for Samsung to prepare the note 3 active...). And if the multiple input thing is true, then imagine going into a phone shop, seeing a staff member dunk the phablet in water, then taking a pen from you to write on it... Easy sales.
Edit: was wondering how long it took for the Samsung troll who regards Sony as a second tier manufacturer to turn up...
Edit 2: people claim a Sony phablet with 3 USPs is a 'me-too' product when the best example of a 'me-too' product this year is the s4 active...

I wonder if togari will be popular. 6.44" screen (with pretty big bezels) is way too big for a phablet IMO. But I remember I said the same thing about note I

^^^ Well, I'm seriously consider getting it for actual tablet use. Though the phone function of it would be a nice addition.
