If people go expecting full blown laptop performance out of a P, then they're going to be disappointed. One is not going to be playing Crysis: Modern Warfare 2 on a P. However it runs MS Office and web browsers including Flash very well.]]>May 10th 2010 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 9:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/

1. There are a few contradictions between the written review and the video review (like where the tilt navigation is enabled and the specifics on resolution).

2. This is the first time I've seen something that actually makes we want an iPad more. ]]>May 10th 2010 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 2:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/

1. The chocolate bar form factor that fits in your pocket and the palm of your hand, then
2. There's the netbook form factor which can be carried in one hand, then
3. There's the notebook form factor which (if you're strong) can be held in one hand, but more than likely you'll always use 2 hands and sit it down.

This is, just, in-between 1 and 2. Can't fit it in your pocket (sorry, rear jeans back pocket with 50% of the unit sticking out does not count). I've seen it shoved in a jacket pocket, so perhaps there is some utility there - but if you don't want to wear a jacket with deep inner-pockets everywhere, well, you need to accommodate this unit the same way as a netbook-sized device, with charger to boot since its battery life is paultry. Then what about if you connect it to a 3G dongle?

I still think that they are on to something with the Vaio P - but this generation tweak doesn't do anything for me. The price is also.. ouch!]]>May 10th 2010 8:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 8:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 6:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/I was long wondering what they ARE for... difficult to hold in hands, hardly fits in pockets... Once I've seen an old man using it on a desk in public library, beside books that takes much of the desk's space. From that very moment of sight I started to think that the type P is a perfectly designed device for those people, writers and "bookworms", but the clear fact that I'm not gonna have it isn't likely to change so soon.]]>May 11th 2010 5:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 8:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/That's what she said?]]>May 10th 2010 10:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/I saw the post before this.

I concur, my Dell Mini 1010 has the same graphics card and it's abysmal. ]]>May 10th 2010 10:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 11:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/
that seems like an odd thing to say in the 4th paragraph of the article...]]>May 10th 2010 8:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 8:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/
I had one of these for a while, picked it up for cheapies off eBay (broken hdd). Fixed it, put Win7 on there and it was...okay. I really, really wanted to like it but, regardless of processing power, I think it is actually *too* small. Not so much the keys, but if you use it on your lap you have to keep your knees together and, like the review said, lean in to the screen.

Anyway, sold mine on in the end for a teeny profit :)]]>May 10th 2010 8:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/
I would go for an X or Z series VAIO tbh. This just looks too... girly. But still, it shows that Sony is miles ahead of other companies in terms of engineering, innovation and, of course, expensiveness.

Yeah, in that case it would be magical and a revelation.

All 3 of the above perform their respective functions better, I can't see where Sony were going with this. At least if they dropped the price they could have competed in the netbook Market.]]>May 10th 2010 8:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/
what about "ultraportable"?

I can't see Sony going anywhere with this - too small, horribly expensive and easily beaten in performance by inferior devices. It looks great but that's it.

My sister's got a 1G and it is laggy as hell, plus, that mouse is useless. ]]>May 10th 2010 8:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/sony-vaio-p-series-review/May 10th 2010 8:22AM
