Do not buy this laptop unless you like you nice slim vaio to come with a huge battery that you will need a separate bag to carry it around

I bought this Sony netbook a few days ago and it is exactly what I expected from Sony…quality and value for money. It is neat, looks modern, enough memory for my purposes and very lightweight. so compact I often carry it in my handbag.

I’M ENJOYING MY NEW PURCHASE

Before buying this product I read the reviews on this site and others, I wish I had taken more notice to the negatives. It does look brilliant and the screen resolution is fantastic, I didn’t think I could go wrong as after all it’s Sony.

The battery supplied with it is the extended battery pack which does stick out for a few centimeters, the standard battery is fitted for the photos. This becomes an issue if you want to put the netbook into a case/sleeve. Also other netbooks have similar or more battery life without the need for bulky batteries.

The right shift key is smaller than the other keys so I was forever hitting the slash or the up arrow key, very annoying. Also the keyboard is less responsive than you would expect.

Windows XP is not included in the box as stated.

The above are all things which you needn’t have to live with, I sent mine back and got the Asus 1008HA instead, its brilliant!

This is my first SONY Netbook,and maybe my last..nice keyboard,love the size of it there is only on thing the max Ram is up to 2GB..so you need to add more..quite slow when you play some internet games,also you need to buy Dvd writter to have a recovery dics or for playing some dvd.Maybe need to buy a laptop again next time.Excellent Netbook.Cheers,P.Soliven
