Customer Rating:      Summary: Powweful portable notebook Comment: This is pretty much top spec mobile computing.
The processor and speed are fast, good size hard drive and comes with built in 3G card. The screen is very thin and the display is excellent. The carbon fibre case makes it light also. Battery is between 2.5 hours and around 5 depending on what power management system you use. Fingerprint recognition is useful also.
Only downsides are the price, problems with Windows Vista Business and the bundled Sony software and continued Sony updates that keep popping up.
You can now get this for around £1100 if you shop around since Sony have just launched the SZ71 which has 200gb hard drive and a slightly faster processor.
