The new Sony VAIO P Series netbook is a one of its kind in that it is smaller than a netbook and smarter than your everyday smartphone – what more can you ask of a perfect companion for on-the-move computing needs? First things first, this amazing piece of equipment weighs a mere 600g, meaning you can carry it very easily and what is more, it can easily and effortlessly slip into your netbook bag or even the pocket of your jacket.

The trackball of this netbook is complemented by additional mouse buttons and a touchpad which are located at either edge of the screen to allow comfortable and easy operation with both thumbs as you hold the machine in your two hands. It further features a built-in GPS and a brand new Digital Compass, another great feature for computing on-the-move as it will tell you your surroundings and all that’s happening. Needless to mention, you can be able to find a nearby restaurant or hotel if you happen to get lost in a foreign city.

The ‘on-the-go features’ are further boosted with the Everywair 3G on-board that will provide you with high-speed internet connectivity to all mobile networks, of course where applicable. Other notable features of the Sony VAIO P Series are the built-in accelerometer capable of responding to all physical movements. This sensor further recognizes when the netbook is turned on its side, which in turn automatically ‘flips’ the screen to a portrait mode to enable easy reading and viewing of the screen.

This great piece of art is brilliantly designed to provide easy operation, with a convenient and comfortable full-pitch keyboard that allows easy typing, and a bright and conveniently wide VAIO Display Plus screen that is perfectly balanced to allow viewing of 2 web pages side-by-side and to allow great viewing of movies. Still on point, there is the provision of dimming screen lighting to allow comfortable viewing while at the same time saving power.

A little after the Voai P, the latest netbook to be released from Sony is the Vaoi W. Even though the price might be a little steep it still looks pretty cool. The design is both stylish and sleek with its well rounded corners and simple colours.

The Vaoi W comes with an Intel Atom N280 1.66ghz processor a 160gb hard drive and 1gb RAM. The screen also has a 1366 x 768 resolution. Other extras include 2 USB ports, VGA outlet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. We are also of the understanding that it will come with some home media streaming software that might be called the VAIO Media Plus.

The Sony Vaoi W has a normal screen size of 10.1” but has a higher resolution than has been common on most netbooks. The colour and contrast are specifically excellent, this cannot be matched by many of the other netbooks out there. Maybe only the NB 200 from Toshiba.

At the moment the Vaoi W is only available for pre-order in the US. If you wish to see more details or pre-order it you can follow this link.
