A review of the Sony VAIO VPCY115FX/BI laptop has been posted over at Geek.com. 'The Y series , specifically the VPCY115FX/BI that we tested, runs Intel's Core 2 Duo SU7300 processor, has 4GB of RAM, and 320GB (5400RPM) of storage. It runs Intel's integrated graphics and the GS45 Express chipset. The 13.3-inch display runs at 1366×768 and is LED backlit in order to maximize battery life. The OS is Window 7 Home Premium. On the exterior the Y series has a Memory Stick reader, a multicard reader, a wireless on/off switch, an ExpressCard/23 slot, three USB slots, ethernet, a Kensington lock port, VGA, HDMI, Firewire, and mic/headphone jacks. At 12.80″(W) x 0.93-1.26″(H) x 8.92″(D) and 3.9 pounds the system may not be very large, but it isn't lacking anything (aside from the optical drive) that a typical user would be looking for.'

Trusted Reviews have published a review of the Sony VAIO CW Series (VPC-CW1S1E/P) 14.1in laptop. 'As for our model, it's powered by an Intel Core 2 Duo P7450 running at 2.13GHz that's supported by a plentiful 4GB DDR3 RAM. Sony has also had the foresight to install a 64-bit version of Windows 7, so all that system memory is being put to good use. A 512MB nVidia GT 230M graphics cards serves up the graphical treats, while for storage you get a 320GB hard drive. Gigabit Ethernet, Wireless-N Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are all present too, completing a thorough specification. Connectivity isn't too bad, either. While the CW does lack eSATA or USB 'sleep and charge' capabilities, it does have mini-FireWire - an increasingly rare connection on laptops of late.'

A review of the Sony Vaio VGN-Z46GD (Core 2 Duo P9700 Processor 2.8GHz, 6GB RAM) laptop has been posted over at CNET Asia. 'The Vaio Z series comes in several fixed configurations. The high-end VGN-Z48GD and VGN-Z47GD sport with solid-state storage and a Blu-ray writer, respectively. The low-end VGN-Z45GD slips in at under S$3,000 (US$2,007.63), but sports a slower processor and less RAM. We reviewed the midrange VGN-Z46GD model that is available in two variants. The VGN-Z46GD/B comes with a standard black metal chassis, while our test unit, the VGN-46GD/U, sports the new shadow border design (which will be detailed later in the review) and a S$100 (US$66.92) premium.'
