Title: Sony TZ laptop reviewed
Post by: Mr. Analog on July 23, 2007, 01:06:58 PM
As I'm sure most Slashdotters / Diggers know, Sony's 2.4 lb solid state laptop is out in the wild and starting to gather reviews:

QuoteVerdict

I love this notebook. If money were no object to me I?d climb into my bright orange Porsche 911 GT3 RS, drive to the nearest Sony store and pickup one of these without thinking twice. Unfortunately money is most definitely an object to me, so I?m unlikely to ever be able to afford the GT3 RS or the TZ12VN!

However, if you are in a position to spend over ?2,000 on a notebook, you most definitely won?t be disappointed in the TZ12VN. Even then though, you?re going to have to seriously want that solid state drive to pay a ?700 premium over the excellent TZ11MN.

The price for this slim, solid state notebook is

QuotePrice ?1,786.38 (Exc VAT)
(as reviewed) ?2,099.00 (Inc VAT)

Currently: ?1 == $2.15 CAD

Which makes me drop my monocle into my martini...
