Sony’s showing at CES 2009

January 7, 2009 – 9:00 pm – No Comment

After yesterday’s disappointing Macworld event, many have their eyes focused on Vegas and the CES.

Some big names in consumer electronics made their press conferences today at the show. Names like LG and Samsung, as well as Cisco.

But tonight’s Sony event was probably one of the more anticipated of the showings.

Tonight at Sony’s press event, it introduced the Vaio P, which could be considered somewhat of a “super netbook.” The price for it is between $900 and $1500. The difference between the $900 model and the $1500 model is that the $900 has a 60GB HDD while the $1500 has a 128GB solid state drive. It is also the lightest 8″ laptop weighing it at 1.4 lbs. The new entry was highly anticipated, but in my opinion, overpriced. Yes, it is Sony and it’s beautiful…but, it’s not worth the price, at least with my initial reaction (I can be persuaded though)… Here’s a picture via Sony.com
