    Yeah, I had also read the developers interview with the previous TX series. I can't wait to see what the next entry in the "Type T" (TR, T, TX and now TZ) series will be.

    I was amazed they increased the screen size in the TX from the T (10.6 to 11.1") and putting the LED backlighting (TX was the first laptop to use it) and having such a thin screen.

    The TX was great and the TZ was even more amazing with it being even lighter than the TX (though a little larger in dimensions) and the option for a 2.5" HDD instead of DVD drive. I hope they keep this option with the next T series.


    Link to Vaio TR and TX developer interview.

    I'm looking forward to bigger and cheaper SSD and/or faster HDD option in the TZ successor. Oh, and a bigger screen or smaller bezel.
