Hello!

I want to inform all people who ar thinking about ordering a self configured Vaio!

I ordered A Vaio T11 for my father on September 18th and the Item left the Production on September 22th. TNT picked it up and until today the Vaio is not shipped. It stays since September 22th at Pudong International Airport Shanghai, China.

The german Sony online Store supportcrew told me that there is an ´issue about LiIon batteries´ and so the Vaio is blocked at the airport. Also the ´higher management´ is trying to solve this problem, but no one can tell me WHO is responsible in the higher management...

I think I am not the only person who have a laptop payed and not getting it.

So: Stay away from custom configured Vaio´s at the moment!

Maybe someone is having the same experiences.

Hi.

I've noticed that Sony has also pulled S15 off from Finland, UK and Sweden. They were available couple weeks ago although not all hardware was available but you could still order one.

I was literally ready to order one from abroad but it seems i must wait now :/

Thanks for letting us know.

_- It looks like they have stopped shipping the current ones and preparing for Win 8 series. Hopefully they fixed the ISP screen issue
