Sony’s UK site has gone live with an array of new Vaio’s, and unfortunately there is not much to see. Everyone’s favorite Vaio Z has gotten nothing worth while and has actually gone up in price. The new P series is up, with the touchpad and slightly tweaked design. The most interesting update is the addition of AMD tri-core processors to the E series line up.
Jump over to Sony UK to see all the pretty new models.

The Vaio Z refresh has been known for a few weeks now (since the announcement at CES), but a few facts were still in the air. Sony Japan has now announced the Z officially with specs that will blow your mind.
The first thing to note is the new eye melting resolution of 1920 x 1080 (on the top end model). If you found the old z hard to read then this one will surely implode your brain.
It also features all the rumored bits and pieces; the Nvidia 330GT, the quad SSD (no hdd option anymore), back-lit keyboard (reference other article) and the 1.4 kg weight. Price is expected to be around the $US1899 but with the release date of March you still have plenty of time to start saving those precious pennies (I recommend collecting cans).

It seems all the over hype about how amazing backlit keyboards are
have reached an ear at the Sony Vaio development team. Their upcoming
Z series refresh is rumoured to be the first Vaio to feature a backlit
keyboard (also the first to feature quad SSD drives). All you
need now is to sell a kidney to be able to afford all that creamy Vaio
goodness (2 kidneys for quad SSD).
