Redfly by Celio Corp is an easier way to connect to the Internet via a smart phone.

A new generation of mobile devices are allowing more options for Internet connection to workers on the go. Among them is a device called Redfly Mobile Companion by Celio Corp. As the name alludes to, the device is to be used as an external terminal for a smart phone connected to the Internet. It comes with a full keyboard and a seven-to- eight inch display screen and allows the user to perform any task online.
Here how it works: Using a smart phone to access the Internet, you hook the Redfly Mobile Companion to the phone through a Bluetooh connection or a USB cable and it will display whatever online activity is on the phone's screen. At the size of a netbook, it is smaller than most laptops and does not have a hard drive or a microprocessor. With its small size and light weight - 2 lbs- for the heaviest of the two models, it comes really handy for people on the move who need to be online but beside their smart phone, don't want to bother carrying a laptop and having to pay that extra $60 a month for Internet access. Another advantage of the Redfly Mobile Companion is that while allowing Internet access, it does not carry the security risks of lost data since there no hard drive to store it to begin with.
As of right now, it only works with smart phones running the Microsoft Windows Mobile operating system with the company promising to start supporting Google' Android later this year.
It comes in two models: a 7-inch and a 8-inch screen weighing respectively 1.46 lbs and 2lbs with MSRP of $229 and $299.
