But under 2lbs... and 6.5 hrs of battery? Holy crap...]]>Apr 10th 2007 8:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/
Or I guess maybe the primary purpose is the faster data access than a hard drive. ]]>Apr 10th 2007 8:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/
it's a first step. the costs are only going to go down. i'm actually suprised it's this "cheap" of a premium. this has all kinds of practical benefits besides decreased energy usage. less moving parts means less chance of mechanical failure. military and industrial uses are enhanced. seek times much less.

but one problem i see is data retrieval in case of failure would be tricky if not impossible.]]>Apr 10th 2007 8:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 10th 2007 11:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 10th 2007 8:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 10th 2007 10:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/
I don't care about their rep I love Sony and this is a great move I would pay the SSD premium just for the luxury of avoiding a damaged HD due to vibrations/shock from mobile use...]]>Apr 10th 2007 9:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 10th 2007 10:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 10th 2007 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 10th 2007 12:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/

they often use 'drop' to mean 'release'. Sony 'dropped' laptop xyz. Drop usually means to withdraw from product offerings.]]>Apr 10th 2007 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 10th 2007 7:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/10/sonys-12-1-inch-vaio-g-bunged-with-ssd/Apr 19th 2007 3:09PM
