Sony calls this new feature a mobile nav grip and we found ourselves using the touchpad more compared to the trackpoint. Sadly, we found our thumb always drifting out of the touch area and having to constantly readjust. Still, it’s a pretty nice implementation as opposed to a touch screen, which given the small 8-inch high resolution (1600 x 768) screen, would be terribly difficult unless you have toothpick-sized fingers.

Other new features include an accelerometer, which allows you to use the notebook in portrait mode, like an eBook reader, along with a feature that allows a user to “flick” through pictures and documents by shaking the notebook either left or right. We didn’t find this particularly useful, but your mileage may vary.

Gone from the new VAIO P is the previous quick start feature that uses Sony’s Xross Media Bar (XMB) that’s also found on its PlayStation lineup. In its place, comes a Splashtop OS for you to access the web quickly. Then again, it took about 20ish seconds last time for the XMB to boot up, and the VAIO P with Windows 7 Home Premium takes about the same time, which is probably why Sony decided to remove that feature altogether and replace it with the quicker Splashtop.

Performance wise, we found the VAIO P to be quite smooth, definitely much better than the previous iteration that was using Windows Vista. Windows 7 probably plays a big part in the unit’s improved boot time, but having a faster Intel Atom Z540 running at 1.86GHz helps a lot.

On benchmarks like PCMark Vantage, we’re seeing scores that are pretty much in the netbook class at 1308 PCMarks. And while it uses an SSD, it doesn’t seem any faster than a normal 5400RPM HDD; on HD Tach, we’re seeing slower burst and read speeds. Copying speeds seem fine on the whole, though our real world test of copying a bunch of files showed that the SSD on the VAIO P was still slower.

As for the battery life, Sony rates the VAIO P at 4 to 4.5 hours, and our video looping test showed it lasting around 187 minutes, or just over 3 hours. That’s pretty decent, and with its light and portable build, makes the VAIO P a notebook that’s definitely easy to carry around.

While we do like the matte surface, the hideous orange color maybe isn’t just the right one for the VAIO P. The white and black version both look good though, so avoid the orange version if it ain’t your color. On the whole, the improvements made to the VAIO P impressed us but the hefty starting price of S$1599 leaves us seriously considering giving this a miss instead.

This at least is trying to do that during the Japanese Fujitsu is known for producing quality computer products and is known to have sophisticated and reliable technology, such as miniaturization motherboard components that could contain a variety of hardware features, such as a 3G modem contains a SIM card or GPS to determine direction .

The price is much more expensive in the middle of cheap netbook computer competition among other multinational brands cause Fujitsu will need to find different forms of design and technology to remain a class of products as well as to reflect the lifestyle of its users

Fujitsu also realize advantages are miniaturization which combines the features of the futuristic hardware. The result, products in this category UH900 LifeBook series weighs just 500 grams to be the lightest notebook.

Touch screen

LifeBook UH900, packaged in a very small size with long dimension of 20.4 cm and 10.65 cm wide, feels like holding a wallet in the hands of users. Fujitsu’s new product is also available in different colors, adjusting for lifestyle consumer tastes.

UH900-sized monitor used 5.6-inch (14.22 cm diagonal) WXGA Superfine use technology that is able to present a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Crisp and clear display monitors are also still equipped with a passive touch technology, enabling users to control Windows 7 with touch.

UH900 LifeBook touch screen technology is different from the touch-screen technology in general because UH900 notebook allows users to perform multi-touch, zoom web sites or digital photos with your fingers.

Interestingly, one of which users can also use the thumbs to type on a QWERTY keyboard because its size makes it possible to do that. LifeBook UH900 a perfect product if it is not as small as the existing monitors, but extends to meet the entire section.

The new processor slated for release in 2011 will be the first integrated graphics processor fabricated on Intel’s 32nm process technology. The single die silicon will come integrated with a powerful graphics processing unit which promises to do more for 3D gaming enthusiasts. However, they are not targeting high-end gaming as they still believe discrete graphics is the way to go, but for casual gamers that need decent 3D performance, Intel is confident that Sandy Bridge will do just that.

According to Intel, Sandy Bridge will contain up to 1.12 billion transistors. It’s not as complex as their six-core Dunnington which had up to 1.9 billion transistors. Considering that it had to accomodate a graphics core, we’re expecting the first Sandy Bridge processors to be a four-core part.

In the Sandy Bridge demonstration, Intel showed how the processor was able to handle 3D graphics with full image settings compared to today’s system with a Core i7 and a mainstream discrete graphics component. The demo did not contain any fast moving scenes, so it’s hard to judge where it stands in terms of fps, but the image quality was good and it was difficult to tell between one from the other.

Intel also showed how much power was drawn from the Sandy Bridge platform and considering it was running 3D, power consumption looks impressive. Although no absolute numbers were shown, an average of 50% in power savings could be possible.

Asus Eee PC 1005

The Eee PC 1005PE avoids most recent trends in the design of Netbook, stick with a 10-inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display, 1GB of RAM, and Windows 7 for beginners. The Eee PC 1005PE definitely wins points for being the first notebook of the gate with the new CPU N450, and its battery life is nothing short of amazing, making this a very useful system for serious road warriors.

The design of the Eee PC 1005PE is very similar to that of earlier models in 1005, with a slight taper toward the front and edges of the lips gently rounded at the top. While the battery is in line with the line of the chassis, without sticking out, is very dense, so the whole system which is heavily weighted toward the back.

The flat top and widely space keys, are typical of a netbook, but the surface of each key is smaller than we have seen in some recent Netbooks, and certainly a big difference from what you find in a 11-inch model . However, it was relatively easy to write, and none of the key considerations are unjustly in miniature.

The touch pad, however, is in need of renewal: the same little we’ve seen in every Eee PC 1005-series, integrated with the rest of the wrist and enclosed by a rectangle of small dots. Combined with a thick rocker bar for left and right buttons, is far larger pad and buttons in a system like the Toshiba NB205.

Battery life of the system is that the new Atom platform really shines. Asus has always had some of the longest-lived Netbooks and the new Eee PC 1005PE ran for 8 hours and 25 minutes of video on our battery drain test playback. That dwarfs the competition, coupled with low power consumption of the system, makes a great solution for all day for road warriors.

Now, once you get used to the light and thin body of Sony Vaio X, just wonder how on earth they have managed to make it happen? Unlike most laptops on the market, Vaio X offer carbon fiber body strong and lightweight so that our laptops are capable of withstanding the worst. Having said that, despite our disappointments of the past few laptops from Sony, we must recognize that the team Vaio X with a touch of class “Luxe”, which can attract a lot of future customers.

Powered By Atom Z550, a 2GHz Netbook / Notebook offers a quick 64 or 256 GB SSD with a decent amount of RAM (2 GB). That gives you the basic use of Photoshop, which is capable of running MS Office Suite, Skype, DVD playback (ISO), DivX HD and MKV files Vaio X will not fail, but do not expect much either Atom processor will not be able to handle too many programs running simultaneously.

There is no doubt that the Sony Vaio X does not replace the Core 2 Duo desktop or laptop last I3, I5, or even laptops i7 announced and is already available, but for what it’s worth, Vaio X gives us exactly what we expected, full less efficient compact are able to give only what you need On-The-Go.

Compact, stylish and capable, Vaio X is a good surprise, however, its relatively high price is likely to scare most of us. But unfortunately, no gain without pain, and if you want to travel as light as possible with some origin of life of the battery, Vaio X is the best toy around the release of Windows.

The key response is “acceptable” but its trackpad is not, however, something that was comfortable for hours, and if you intend to use the laptop like device DZ of the house or office can only advise to invest in the proposed , wireless mouse and keyboard combo. Unlike most Notebooks the DZ is in fact a tablet PC minus the “touch” capability.

If we were in no doubt that having a Dual Screen compact notebook was a winner, we are still very skeptical about the potential performance of a computer with AMD Athlon Neo V. CPU@1.6Ghz.

DZ truly life changing, not only for bloggers, but also for photographers or people who need to manage many documents and should do so on the trip. Always in ideal conditions, these screens typically provides a more vivid color, but more real, when in the street or used.

There is no better than the dual-screen notebook available in the market in this price range! Available for less than 100,000 yen in GeekStuff4U.com, DZ is required for anyone traveling, or in this case, you have to crawl through Tokyo, every press conference or spend an hour at the press center of the event. This, AOS, both in the office with you wherever you are!

has some features that are far from the Netbook standard, including a higher-resolution 1,366×768 screen, an HDMI output, a TV tuner, a bold new look, cover and edge to edge of glass overlay on the screen. Shell out more, and you can get an integrated mobile broadband and GPS.

Dell Mini 10 rather than taking its cues from the major construction Inspiron notebook family with the same rounded edges and shiny surface. This is a smart move to attract first-time buyers of the laptops as a familiar look and decide to dive Netbook less complicated.

There are no missing keys or major space compromises, and important keys, such as the Shift, Tab, and Ctrl keys, are relatively full-size. Palmrest close the system is far too long and become unwieldy, but requires a long and Mailbox sense of style notes, with mouse buttons built directly into the bottom left and right corners of the site.

Dell Inspiron Mini 10 lasted 5 hours and 40 minutes in our test video playback battery drain using the six cell battery included. The battery is very bulky and protrudes from the bottom of the system, resulting in the back. Three lower battery option is also available.
