    Hi

    Two things.

    One, i see that the CR and TZ now have Mac/apple styled keyboards. And wow it looks good, but does anyone know if this is the way sony is going with its keyboards? (I want to get a Sony FZ but its rubbish keybaord is holding me back)

    And the second, does anyone know any offical specs of the new sony, CZ, CR or SZ?

    Thanx :D

    first i have to state that The TZ has A VAIO 505 EXTREME styled keyboard, not "apple/mac", the vaio 505 EXTREME was even released almost 3 years earlier then the macbook. so who copy whose?

    there are a lot of people thats under the impression that the TZ keyboard is copied off of the macbook, however it was actually apple that hired some of sony's design engineers to design their macbook, including the keyboard.
