Vaio P is the most outstanding laptop at CES 2009 recently. With a large resolution screen but only 8 inches wide, Vaio P is advertised by Sony as being able to fit neatly into a pocket and the company tries to assert, "this is not a netbook".

Prices announced in the UK market are more expensive than in the US, £ 850 is equivalent to about $ 1,200. Earlier, representatives of the company said, this model focuses on ordinary users.

Explaining the price, Mike Abary, vice president of technology products of the company said that Vaio P is not following the trend of cheap netbooks, the product will be for those who do not know netbooks.

Besides, the machine does not focus on speed, but invests in the design and feel that gives users when they use it. With these aspects, Sony believes that the proportion of female customers buying Vaio P is more than male, about 60/40.

Not only high price, Vaio P is also a model that does not allow upgrading. Fully sealed and without screws to open, replace, upgrade components. Meanwhile, in Japan, Sony's hometown, the young people in the country criticized the ads that put Vaio P into their pockets but could not reach them all.
