Sony Vaio VGN-TX670P
Posted by Jeremy Charette in "HARDWARE" @ 07:00 AM
"Sony is drawing oohs and aahs once again with its coolest ultraportable yet, the Sony VAIO VGN-TX670P. Like its predecessor, the VAIO VGN-T350P, this laptop integrates Cingular's EDGE 3G WAN radio. The TX670P also includes some very cool improvements, is even slimmer than the T350P, and integrates something all ultraportables should have—a built-in DVD burner. At 2.7 pounds, the TX670P is lighter than the T350P (3.1 pounds), which can be attributed to Sony's decision to envelope the system in carbon-fiber alloy, which is stronger yet lighter than the magnesium-alloy cases the company typically uses. It weighs the same as the Toshiba Portégé R200 and is as impressively sleek; however, the TX670P has an internal dual-layer DVD±RW drive and 1GB of memory—not to mention better battery life. For these reasons and more (keep reading!), we're awarding the TX670P an Editors' Choice."
Sony's latest laptop opens up a whole new world of possibilities. The new TX series is powerful enough to do really high-end photo and video editing, and light enough that you really can take it with you. Imagine being able to take a picture, crop and edit it that night in your hotel room, or your parents' house; and print it right then and there. Or being able to shoot video with a high-definition camcorder, then edit and burn the DVD right away, anytime, anywhere. It also incorporates high speed wireless internet (through Cingular), so you can upload your photos right to the web and share them immediately. If only they could make a Media Center PC this slick. :roll:
