Interviews With The Developers Of Sony’s VAIO NW

top_n

The VAIO NW is one incredible laptop – a 15.5 inch screen, Intel Core Duo, Blu-ray, 4GB of RAM, HDMI out, instant-on Internet and more for less than a thousand dollars. You’d be hard pressed to find many alternatives with the same stylish appearance and features. I tried to price a laptop out at dell.com with similar features and an alternative color and it was hundreds more. Nonetheless, VAIO Community posted a new blog recently where they featured some interviews with the developers of the VAIO NW – its quite interesting. Sony Insider feels that the Instant-On Internet is probably one of the coolest features to hit a laptop in a long time.

    I was lucky to play with NW series when I visited SonyStyle store last weekend actually. My intention was to check out the design and see how the Instant On Web access worked. They had a number of NW series with different design patterns and it will definitely be appealing to students and young generation, I do not see any type of business or exec type people buying this notebook. Instant Web access worked as shown in the above video, pretty quick and easy. You will get an option to join the wireless network and you will be on and surfing in a second. I think it was a pretty good choice to utilize this feature. This Instant On feature is provided to Sony by the company called Splashtop.
