Umm... yeah it is! Had you hit the read link and read the article you would have known. And you can tell from the features it has, not to mention they compare the speed with other netbooks in that little paragraph, "...the 2GHz Atom Z550 paired with 2GB of memory and 128GB SSD did very well against netbook-class machines..." You read the title only and start bitching in the comments. Your reply FAIL!

I think you could easily put a ~100Wh ~14v battery inside there, maybe more. I'd like a true 12 hours of regular use without a charge, and fast charging tech.


for most people it would be the first multi-day use laptop, like how nokia phones were before we got into "smartphones"

Elsewhere, VGA is still very popular and here, and in our university, it's the de facto plug for *I think* all the projectors in all classrooms. Well, you can't really expect me to check hundreds of rooms. But we recently got new XGA NEC projectors for the classrooms in our building and we're still using VGA, with an optional DVI, HDMI and ye old composite and component of course. DisplayPort? WTF is that? Seriously, DisplayPort is non-existent here. ]]>Oct 21st 2009 6:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/Oct 21st 2009 6:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/
Exactly! Makes no sense that while everyone is happy when Intel releases new CPUs or when a new OS comes out, when superior display technology comes out most everyone fights it like the plague. Either that, or people just don't know about it.


This is a Mini DisplayPort built in a laptop:

Well well, mr MS Fanboy, tell us about the progression of display interface technologies then since you think you know.

Man when will Sony learn...... they cant keep pushing there stock value up like this forever and keep their share holders happy, by releasing over bloated and glorified products. Hey lets take the PS3 and stuff in an LV suitcase we can call it the PS3LV Limited Addtion limited to 2 Million suckers who would fork out the cash for that shite.

They should just release GOD of WAR for the PS3 already and put eveyone out of their misery, thats the only reason I know why some people are even holding onto to their PS3zzzzzzzz

1.6lbs. Granted, my TZ runs 720p without issue but if I have to drop to SDTV, it's an acceptable sacrifice for anyone doing any significant amount of travel or on-site work.

Carbon fiber, 3G, GPS & SSD. Everything has a cost.]]>Oct 21st 2009 7:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/
This is not a netbook, that's the Vaio W. This is a notebook, it just runs an Atom processor to keep costs down and battery life up. It replaces the TT which went for double the price, so this is a bargain. Thinnest laptop ever, incredibly light, made from carbon fibre & aluminium, runs on a SSD, etc, etc I just went to the product page and it's a pretty impressive machine. Netbooks have spoilt us and made us expect so much for so little. This is a luxury machine and frankly I think for all it offers it's actually very well priced. Sure they could've offered an HD version and maybe taken out some other luxuries, or made the extended battery a seperate add-on to keep the price down; but then you're pretty much left with the Vaio W, so why bother.

The only hangup with this machine is the Atom processor not being that powerful, but it can still handle most tasks though might struggle with HD video from what some reviewers are saying.]]>Oct 21st 2009 11:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/Oct 21st 2009 1:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/Oct 21st 2009 6:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/Oct 21st 2009 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/sony-vaio-x-reviewed-outrageous-battery-claims-tested-nearly-v/
I'll wait for the Viliv S10, 2ghz Atom, 10" 720p screen, touch tablet, and 10 hrs of battery life without the ridiculous battery attachment and it'll probably be 65% of the cost of this Vaio X.
