    The main difference in the Sony SZ3xx series is the Core 2 Duo chips, as well as in some configurations, more standard memory and larger HD's. Most of the design, including the keyboard, is still the same as the SZ2xx series.

    Honestly, I like the SZ keyboard. Unlike other laptop keyboards which I tend to demolish in a matter of a month or two, this one is holding up like a champ and is comfortable to type on.

    What about the hit or miss space bar issue? Have they already corrected this?
