    Hi guys. I am looking at purchasing the TZ18 from overseas. But I saw on the UK Sony site has released the TZ20s. The only difference I can see is the HSDPA added to the new TZ. A little bit heavier and also come with 2Gb stick.

    Anyone know if Australia is getting this model or is it for UK only? If so is it worth waiting for the new TZ20s

    Thanks in advance

    i'm interested to know if Aus is expecting a refresh/update too.
    Somebody said recently that the sony lines get updated every three months or so. That however, was in the context of an SZ discussion so dont know if it's relevant to the TZ/TX series.

    I'm pretty sure that we're very close to three months since the TZ was released in AUS though.

    It may have been me that posted that, and it's relevant to most notebook lines in Australia.

    It isn't always an introduction of a new model, but more often an update of specifications for the same price point.

    It's normally 3 months, and at the most 6.

    I guess I'll wait for the update version.
