    Information and pics on this Sony site: http://www.learningcenter.sony.us/Notebooks/SZSeries
    If you want premium I recommend the dark keyboard that is standard as it goes better with the dark color of the premium models.

    Premium has been sporadically available at SonyStyle.com, Sony stores and a few other retailers (online stores, frys, etc). The high demand and short supply along with large number of backorder at Sony has kept the premium models scare in the US.

    SZ Premiums are any model 150-180. Only SZ160 has been released in the US so far. No official word when the other premium models will be released.

    The premiums in the US have the black keyboard. I ordered my premium from Japan with the silver English keyboard.

    Here's a (small) picture of all the color combinations... (also, please be aware that these are the Japanese models, but the picture is valid for color comparison purposes.)
