![Sony Dash lunch](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4150/4997259801_b463dd75a4.jpg)
The resulting meal was absolutely divine in every sense of the word. I can't believe how easy she made it look to prepare, I cannot believe how pretty each dish looked, and I cannot believe how delicious everything tasted. The fact that a real live chef made these dishes usually means (to me, at least) that ordinary people can't make them -- either they require some special technique or they require so much time and effort that I just can't be bothered -- but I've actually made the White Peach & Berkeley Burrata dish twice; each time it has been so easy to make, and each time it has been gobbled up in an instant.
The theme of Meals in a Dash was perfect, considering Sony had invited us there to introduce us to the new Sony Dash, a personal internet viewer you can keep on the kitchen counter, on the corner table in your guest room, on your nightstand, or anywhere you would want to access the internet in a flash without the hassle of booting up a computer.
![The Amazing Sony Dash](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4127/4997863038_e93a193d55.jpg)
Sony gave each blogger their very own Dash to keep, and I must say it's the best digital photo frame/glorified alarm clock/recipe finder/YouTube viewer/gadget to get a quick Internet fix I've seen. The kids say having this Dash kind of makes up for our not owning an iPad, because with the Dash you can do things like view photos from Facebook, browse headlines, check your Twitter stream, listen to Pandora radio, . The 7-inch screen is big enough for them to view their favorite YouTube videos, and they love the touchscreen. I love way you can personalize apps for each member of the family as well as guests. It sure makes checking your email quicker and easier than having to boot up a computer, and it's the perfect way to check the weather or catch the morning headlines while you're waiting for coffee to brew, or munching on your breakfast cereal!
The blah? Much as I love Sony, I think they missed the mark by keeping the Dash leashed to a plug and an outlet, instead of giving it a battery so we could carry it from room to room around the house, or even take it to Starbucks or some other place with WiFi. And it would be nice to be able to use the Dash as a digital photo viewer even if you don't have WiFi (there is a USB port that you can plug a USB storage device into, but nothing works unless the device is able to locate and access a wireless network). But it's a great little device, and our Sony Dash won't be dashing out of the house anytime soon!
Win a Sony Dash
Just in time for the holiday season, you could win your own Sony Dash personal internet viewer! Sony gave me a second Dash to give away to one lucky Bonggamom Finds reader.
Update 10/24/10: Sorry everyone! I guess you can tell I copy and paste my giveaway wording, because my entry requirements for this giveaway were completely unrelated and incorrect. I've changed the entry requirement below -- and since it's my mistake, all entry answers the initial question (it used to say "tell me your favorite Photo Card Creations design") are still valid. Thanks for your patience and sorry for messing that up!

The mandatory entry I think is a typo since its for the photo giveaway, but I will just tell you my favorite feature of the Dash instead. :)
I think the touchscreen is obviously the best feature, but for me personally I love the size of this. I would use it alot in the kitchen when using recipes from allrecipes.com!

I think you are right that the people at Sony are doing themselves a disservice by "leashing" the Dash...that being said what an amazing tool!!
I like that it's portable and I'd love to own one!!

The size & shape (and how it stands upright). This would be perfect for the kitchen, which is the only room in the house where I don't like using my laptop (too much risk for spillage), but where I frequently find myself needing to look something up.
