    So I found this on the FCC

    11.6 inch screen from samsung and 3G as well

    I hope this upload host works for everyone if not I can upload them elsewhere. No idea what CPU, but perhaps this is the new ultrabook from sony? seems to have some kind of similar design like the Z, not 100% though. any thoughts? I've been eying this thing since it appeared on the FCC, and waited until the images become available lol.

    At the moment it doesn't look too nice.

    Thanks for uploading the pics!

    Agreed not the best looking device, but that is how it is usually with FCC photos. I would imagine the 11.6 inch screen won't have such high resolution.

    Looks like another Sony netbook. I think we're all just interested in their successor to the Z2... looks like a new naming scheme too with the VCC or is it VC-C?

    I would think so as well but in the manual it says

    VAIO User Guide VCC111 Series

    and from the photos it seems like it does not have a usb 3.0 but 2 regular usb 2.0, and the cpu on the bottom is stated as T25, this is a longshot, but could this be the T25 tegra 2? so my guess is that this is the chromebook from sony.

    Checking through the manual I found this

    Mystery solved :D

    Well, in that case, no need to follow its news, then. Chromebook is as useful as Google+...
