    I'm scouring sony's site, and looking at the different models. I configured a 570 the way i want it, with the high res 17 inch screen, and other basics. I of course left out the tv tuner and blu-ray because i'm just not interested (and thus i have not worried much about the 590).

    But i am aware there are still differences, i know that the screen is different between the two, even though they are both the 1920x1280 models (i think thats about the correct pixel count), i'm sure there are more too. Can anyone enlighten me?

    Mentions of differences are few and far between on the sony website, and there is virtually no way to contact someone from sony to ask. (if anyone has a way, please let me know)

    Thank you.
