    Thank you - i didn't specify location since i will buy from everywhere :) - looks like they do not have the small connector that is inside my Vaio TZ

    And damn they are expensive. I might have to look into using the warranty for the laptop in Japan.

    It is a ZIF connector.

    There is nothing at newegg. I tried to order it from dvnation 15 days ago and have not heard anything and nothing is charged from my creditcard.

    When i try to e-mail them i get:

    Recipient address: [email protected]
    Reason: Remote SMTP server has rejected address

    Anyone knows of anyone else selling? Pricejapan have ignored around 10-15 emails from me now.

    If PriceJapan are ignoring you, you could try asking Conics.net.

    I just received my 16Gb ssd express card by Lexar.. for my TZ191

    I couldn't spring for the 32Gb by Transcend at more than twice the price

    Early adopters sure pay the premium price
