    Hi all

    I'm planning on buying this hybrid for my daughter before high school starts but I have a couple of questions.

    1) I live in Canada and when I accessed the Sony Canada website, it only displayed one model of Duo 13 and wouldn't allow me to customize. Is one model for sale in Canada and that's it???? If not, where on the website can you customize or pick a model that has your specs in mind?

    2) I would like to get the LTE modem with the DUO but understand that it comes as an extra with the lower models but built in with the more expensive models. Will this LTE come locked in Canada to one mobility service or unlocked? Is it better to have the modem as an external unit or internal?

    If you hadn't known, Sony is getting out of the computer business. Sony sold the VAIO brand. Whatever Sony Vaio laptops you see, whether online or in a store is it. Sad, I know.
