Like a scene right out of Apple Microsoft, Sony has been doing some hot viral marketing, to promote a new VAIO. The site found here has been showing teasers of a new Sony VAIO product for a week or so by now.

This ultra-portable has Bluetooth, WLAN, WWAN, Memory Stick, a capture button, QWERTY keypad, fingerprint reader, zoom buttons, square joystick, and more. The campaign has seemed to shift for this new Origami-like PC you see here to the announcement of their upcoming Blu-ray laptop, unless this too supports Blu-ray (putting this way out of the Samsung UMPC Q1 price range). There is still a lot more to learn, we expect to get the full scoop tomorrow, so stay tuned and start saving.
