Here it is. What’s Happening • Hardware Compiled by Steve Smith Sony’s Carbon-Shielded, Always-Connected Nano Laptop We’ve always been impressed by the VAIO ultra-ultra-lights, not just for their weight but for the incredible functionality Sony packs into such space. But now we’re really salivating. The new TX line, thanks to its carbon-fiber casing, is actually lighter and slimmer and offers a bigger view. The enlarged 11.1-inch LCD is about 45% slimmer than its predecessor. At a feather- like 2.76 pounds, the TX even has a double-layer DVD burner, and the latest releases also have an integrated Cingular Wireless WAN. Ordinarily, we wouldn’t call a $2,500 starting price a bargain, but to be this cool and this connected wherever we go is worth that price.
