MobileTechReview have published a review of the Sony Vaio P (2010, second gen) notebook. 'The second generation Vaio P was long in coming since it's not easy to evolve something this miniaturized and custom engineered. More than a year later, an eon for the tech world, the re-designed P is finally here in two models: the base $899 model that's available in a variety of mundane and entertaining colors with a 1.6GHz Intel Atom CPU and the $1,499 black model with a 2GHz Atom CPU. Though the Atom CPU puts the Vaio P in the netbook camp, the rest of the specs place it firmly outside, hence the high ticket price relative to netbooks. Beyond Sony's excellent build quality and aesthetics (second only to Apple), the P's super-high resolution/high DPI/high quality display, dual band WiFi 802.11n, Bluetooth, Windows 7 Home Premium rather than Starter Edition and 2 gigs of RAM are better than netbook fodder.'
