#1 "Im not buying this, therefore the company has lost direction/is going under" posts. Sorry, no.
#2 Bleats for Nvidia ION in ultraportables this small. Have you *seen* the power usage for ION versus the GMA500? Battery usage is already too short, sticking ION in there would render it utterly useless.
#3 "XXX is way a cheaper Atom netbook than the Vaio P", "ZZZ is way more powerful for the same price". Sure it's way overpriced. But show me a similar netbook with the same size and weight - they're all heavier and bulkier. The lightest Asus (one of the old models) is half as heavy again, and the later models are more than double. Macbook Air, twice the weight. The Alienware M17x?! It weighs nearly *12lbs*. Even better value is putting $2k into a whitebox desktop.
