    For those with the new Sony Vaio Z11, how does the Sony MS card and the SD memory cards fit in their respective slots? Once inserted, are they flush against the notebook body contour or do they stick out?

    Also, is there a locking mechanism that holds the cards in place? Or are the cards just wedged in there?

    Thanks in advance.

    The cards stick out about 1mm.

    You press on the card to eject to take them out.

    I stick an SD card into my Vaio Z; it does stick out, but it does not matter because the whole bottom lip of the laptop sticks out even more, which effectively hides the SD card. I hope that really helps.
