Sony Vaio T commands the premium price you expect from Sony.
Sony has a reputation for building some interesting notebooks and netbooks like the svelte
Vaio X unveiled back in October. The company also has a history of offering some of the most expensive notebooks on the market with the only difference between them and other cheaper machines being the Sony brand. Sony discontinued the T series notebooks a while back, but the
Vaio T name has been resurrected.
The Sony Japan website is now listing a new series of Vaio TT notebooks that are sporting CULV processors and other interesting features. They look much like the older Vaio T machines that were killed off on the surface. Underneath the brightly hued skins sits new Intel CULV parts like the Celeron SU2300 and Core 2 Duo SU9400/SU9600 processors.
The notebooks support up to 8GB of RAM and can be fitted with storage options including 500GB HDDs or a massive 512GB SSDs. I hate to think what a Sony notebook with a massive SSD would retail for. Other features include Windows 7, and available Blu-ray players. WiFi and fingerprint scanners are also built-in. In proper Sony fashion, the machines command a premium starting at $1560 ($US1401).
