    I also found a video that was upload yesterday by someone. The Disassembly was done by the Vaio Engineer himself.

    I don't know how to embed a video on a vbulettin. Mods may edit and do it :)

    PS: I don't own a Vaio Z but have been looking forward to buy one once the prices come down a little. It is just too expensive right now (for me).

    If they put in a bigger screen to decrease the bezel size then I am sure less people will complain about the thick bezel...myself included.

    I would trade a larger bezel for the removal of stupid palm rests anyday. Perhaps we can get a smaller bezel and full sized right shift key in the Z3. :p

    Me too...I still didn't get used to the thicker bezel on the Z2.

    I would definitely opt for no right Fn key, and get a full size right shift.
