![]()
It’s official, in addition to the already announced VAIO BZ, Sony has also confirmed the release of its new VAIO Z, FW and SR notebooks, which are all expected to be available in the July-August time period.
The complete range of models are powered by the new Intel Centrino 2 processors. The VAIO Z is packed with a Blu-ray drive, HDMI and a full size hard drive bay. It even has an option for dual SSD in a RAID configuration. The notebook is 1-inch thick, and weighs just 3.4 pounds. The Z is priced at $1,800, or with the SSD option for $2,300.
Pushing on the mainstream market, Sony designed the VAIO SR. It has multiple color options, and a four pound form factor. One let down is that this 13.3-inch model has no Blu-ray option. The Sony VAIO SR will retail for $1,400.
The last notebook is the Sony VAIO FW which is a 16-inch model with an improved 16:9 aspect ratio as compared to the VAIO SR. The VAIO FW will be priced from as low as $1,000, but can quickly rise up as high as $1,750.
