Hints of a new series of Vaio’s have now been confirmed. According to the Sony Style website, Sony plans to release a fresh new series of Vaio laptops this Monday, July 14th. Unofficially, last week, Sony had leaked the specs of various laptops like their SR, FW, and Z series models. Though, no one knew exactly when Sony planned on releasing these details more, well, “officially.“ Hopefully this teaser is providing exactly what we’ve been looking for. It’s leaks like these that keep us on the edge of our chairs, Sony.

Coming just a few months after the last software update for the Mylo COM-2, Sony has just released yet another update. This brings the version up to 1.201 and should be well worth the time it takes to update. The new version of software offers a few big items which include support for video recording and the ability to support Memory Stick Duo memory cards up to 16GB in size. In addition the update also includes some other notable items which include:

• Adds a new menu option for easier photo and video uploading
• Provides an “Optimize” option in Task Manager for system memory
• Adds a function to format Memory Stick Duo media
• Adds the ability to display thumbnail images in the Game menu
• Improves Flash playback of YouTube videos

Coming in at just about 60MB, the update is slightly large, but like I mentioned it seems to be a worthwhile update. Hit the update link below to find the download.
