    Don't know, but the crappy SZ keyboard seems to have infected the AR, F and C-series notebooks. If the keyboard is anything like the TX before it, then count your blessings. Although the TX has small keys, I found it much more pleasant to type on than the sz-style keyboards, which have switches with no tactile feedback.

    The TX has a completely different style of keyboard than every other Sony I've seen (including SZ, FE, FZ, AR, C, N series). Both the look and feel are very different on the TX. I'm not sure about the TZ though.

    I just don't see the problem with SZ's keyboard, I like it quite a lot.

    My SZ320 seems great, absolutely no problems with the space bar. Wasn't the space bar issue fixed after the 200 series?

    The TZ keyboard does look good.
