    Anyone know what the (presumably) minor-refresh VAIO Pro/Duo 13's bring to the table?

    I saw some new models of the Pros and Duos which I couldnt yet order on the distributor site. Does anyone know what changes there might be?

    Being Sony I wouldn't be surprised if they fixed the wireless and then made it a new model so that they wouldn't have to bring a fix to existing users, but I was curious.

    Do you have the model numbers of the refresh units?

    Oo, colour me interested.
    Duo13 would be perfect, if not for a few minor problems.

    I see the 'new' models listed on Sony USA. Seems like it's just Windows 8.1.

    Yeah, there are no obvious spec changes. I'm wondering if there are any hardware revisions - since I'm still considering the Pro 13.
