Sony Introduces New Ultraportable Series
Good news to road warriors who prefer ultraportable laptops when working on the go. Sony has introduced a new ultraportable, the Vaio G series, which starts at only 1.98 lbs!
The new Vaio will have a screen with a 1024×768 resolution (compared to the 1366×768 of the T series), 6 to 12.5 hours of battery life (T series has 5 to 11), a Celeron or Core Solo processor. A slightly more expensive version will come with a Dual-Layer DVD burner and a better battery but will increase the weight to 2.52lbs (T series weighs 2.84 lbs).
This is good news for people who are on the go and who would rather have something very light and very small. I know how it is to carry a heavy laptop while commuting to and from work, and I can say it takes a toll on the back!
Of course, you cannot expect much power from an ultraportable. These kinds of laptops focus more on portability and long battery life (most ultraportables can run more than 10 hours on a single charge; the Sony G series even ups that, with a standard 12.5 hours operation for the standard battery). These are mostly best for documents, email and surfing the Web.
