At last, a Sony mini laptop is here, the Sony Vaio P Series. Although not in the form some originally expected, an adapted Via Openbook, the Sony Vaio P series has all the size and weight credentials that a netbooks should have. It weighs a miniature 638g, that's colse to two thirds the weight of the former netbook; the Asus Eee Pc 701. Like the heavenly thin MacBook Air, the P-series is also under 2cm thick at 19.8mm and only "slightly larger than an office envelope."
But the impressive specs don't stop there...
Laptop Ssd
The Led backlit screen, 8 inches over and in a widescreen format, has a surprisingly high 1600x768 resolution (compared to 1024x600 for your daily netbook). At that resolution, it's unlikely you'll ever need much side-scrolling again, since most webpages aren't that wide. Battery life is stated as 4 hours for the appropriate model, or 8 for the large capacity battery - sufficient for a full days work.
My jaw hit the deck when I saw how much Ssd drive storage the P series is offering - up to 128Gb. Ssd or Solid State storage requires no lively parts and is thus very durable. But it's very high-priced to furnish a large storage Ssd facility which has meant most netbooks have had colse to 16Gb tops. A hard drive version is also ready offering 60Gbs storage.
Sony has incorporated some no ifs ands or buts clever extra features. Firstly, a Gps which needs no internet association (in the Usa and Canada only - more of that later), Windows Vista - a first for a computer this small and an array of connectivity options; Wireless Lan 3G Broadband, 802.11n Lan and Bluetooth so you're related wherever there's mobile phone signal. Other more appropriate features like the 'Motion Eye' webcam and microphone are also included, not to forget the Sony 'xross media bar', tasteless with the PlayStation 3 and Bravia Hdtv range.
The inclusion of Vista is interesting. Most netbooks haven't strayed above 1Gb of Ram whereas the new Sony has 2Gb. Processing power is a bit on the light side however since the P series will only come with a 1.33Ghz processor from Intel, not the Intel Atom tasteless with most netbooks - perhaps suggesting how much Sony wants to disassociate itself with the "cheap and cheerful" netbook look. As we previously mentioned in our description on the Vaio Tt - try searching netbook on Sony's Vaio site - nothing.
Of course, it's only just been made ready in the Usa (today 8th January) - beginning at 9 which works out about £600 at today's (painful) transfer rate. And here's the good bit...
It hits the shelves in the Uk as well as in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Russia in February. We can't wait to get our hands on one.
