Also, by the time the corners of these stickers peel off and you can remove the stickers with ease the area under it is pristine and you can see the difference in tone from sun damage or wear and tear.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Oliver Lewis]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 5:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wonder if you ever actually bought a laptop and tried removing those stickers. I´ve had several Vaio´s and peeling off them is rather easy nor does it leave anything behind. Weather the colouring is different due to sun I strongly doubt as well caus that would suggest the materials arent UV proof, ie every laptop would discolour over time. (note: i´m talking about those tech specs they are easy to remove ussually they add 1 sticker from Nvidia which is harder to remove)<br>So.. no this is just crappish bitching with no apparant reasoning behind it just like the article which nothing better to bitch about a few stickers could be found about it. Ie its a pretty fine laptop apparantly for the price.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JZ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 28th 2009 2:36AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow.

Its pretty sad that most all the laptops available these days are packed with awesome features, but have horrible screens. What happened? I have a laptop from almost 6 years ago that has better quality screens than you can buy these days.  I would rather pay 50-100 dollars more and have a screen that has a viewing angle higher than 5 degrees.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[scottbell]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 6:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree 100% with you on that...it took me over a year to finally settle on a MacBook Pro because of the crappy LCD's and bad viewing angles from just above every other manufacturer, particularly HP.

All in all a pretty good deal. Fast enough, I have had no problems with the screen at all. With these specs and Blu-Ray I thought it was a pretty good deal. I wouldnt recommend it for gamers but the HD video processor is more than enough for everyday tasks. Im looking forward to seeing how it runs Windows 7 when I get the free upgrade in the mail. The faux wood finish is a little odd but I kind of like it, the texturing feels nice when carrying it. I will say that it does FEEL like a cheap laptop (Keyboard is excellent though). All plastic, but it feels rugged enough to survive in my padded laptop backpack. Blu-Ray playback is excellent, and it looks great on a screen this size. Plus you can output 1080p in HDMI (although you have to kill the main display to do 1080p). Battery life is so-so, they claim 5.5 hours but I have seen closer to 2 or 3 hours in most scenarios. Im thinking about picking up an extended battery but that is a big chunk of change (250 bucks!). Overall Im very happy, wanted something with Blu-Ray that wouldnt break the bank. I never wanted to be a Sony fanboy, in my younger days I did everything I could to avoid them. Now I own a PSP, PS3, BRAVIA TV and Home Theater and a Sony digicam. For whatever reason whenever I had a need they offered me the best performance/price combo. I am as shocked as you are.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DecemberBullets]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 28th 2009 1:33PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[Awe crap, this looks just like the Sony Vaio Bz business line, which I have.

I really like this notebook - its not terribly heavy to be honest, and the keyboard is excellent, though i would prefer if it were slightly less stiff. For a notebook made entirely of recycled plastic, the build quality is quite decent and I'm not worried about putting this in my padded notebook backpack. I'm only a casual gamer so the graphics solution works fine for me. Screen isn't that bad either. I'm quite happy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[br123]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 9:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[that thing is ugly as hell.

I have silver one. it is awesome. of course, I have 15-inch macbook pro as well (unibody purchase october, 2008). it's lovely machine. if you don't use it or actually didn't see on naked eyes, be quiet.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[taeguenyoo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 10:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well I actually got mine used. So I guess if you're hellbent on buying it new in store this is a slightly better deal than the new unibody macbook pros. But even those are $1100 with an education discount with a free ipod touch, and free printer. But I got mine for $850 from some fellow around here. It was purchased in March. It's not hard to find a good deal on unibody macbooks.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Victor]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 10:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[That's great, but if you want Blu-Ray a Macbook is useless. I would love a Mac but for the price I wanted to pay and the features I wanted a Mac just did not cut it. Failure to support Blu-Ray and native HDMI at their pricepoint is insane. Great machines though.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Johnathan Dinan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 10:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[here is a big difference when you buy it from Bestbuy or sony store (or online sony store). if you buy it from bestbuy or similar mall, you can't get ATI radeon HD4570 512MB graphic card inside. it makes your laptop way more different. if you buy it from Sony, then you have two choices that fully Blu-Ray player with everything maxout (graphic card, 400GB), and 320GB with still ATI HD 4570 graphic card without Blu-Ray. to me, Blu-Ray is not deal because I mostly download every content from iTunes, or Neflix. so I don't need it. I have used it for two weeks now. I love it. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[taeguenyoo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 10:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[I concur.  Took my wife to a few stores and she loved the Vaio NW, nothing else was close.  I ended up ordering the 130J/S model off NewEgg because it offered the best configuration (ATI HD4570 graphics card) without having to get the Blu-Ray (much like you, we have no need for it).  The pricetag at NewEgg was $50 more than BestBuy ($849 vs. $799) but 2.5% NewEgg cashback from Bing and a 6.75% state sales tax for BestBuy meant buying the better configuration actually saved us $15.<br><br>I am thoroughly impressed with the laptop, especially given the price tag.  My wife actually preferred the textured matte body because it didn't show smudges like the glossy bodies on HP, Dell, and others (she felt the same about the touchpad).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MikeB]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 11:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[Go macs straight to the bin!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[switchbitch]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2009 10:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/27/sony-vaio-nw-unboxing-and-hands-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[These were available at Selfridges UK about 3 weeks ago.
