Sony isn't offering anything that can't be found elsewhere, they are just trying to offer it at a premium price.

Overpriced & not particularly cutting edge. Problem is a lot people will pay the price for what they conceive as a premium product from a premium brand name, just like Apple (flame suit on).

Otherwise, short of the higher resolution screen, I can catch an EeePC 1005HA with the 280 Atom and a 7 hr. battery for $359 on sale. Their price is waaayyy off.<br><br>That price is hitting the point where you'd rather spend for an actual laptop, instead, and just deal with shorter battery and less portability in favor of more muscle.

I saw the Vaio W there for about, 1,200,000 won...or about $1000 U.S. They're crazy. I live in Busan, Korea and a Costco just opened up near my house.
