IN RESPONSE to my computer post below, Jose Guardia emails:

I read you’re considering buying a smaller Sony laptop; have you seen the Sony Vaio UX series? It’s barely bigger than the Nokia you just tested, but has cell connectivity and better features in general. Here’s a video review: Link.

It’s not available in Spain yet, and perhaps in the US is neither. I was tempted trade the Inspiron I also use for one of those small 2 lbs Vaios, but I think I’ll wait for the UX at least to try it in my hands and then decide.

Actually, I ordered the small but not quite that small Vaio TX. But I’m supposed to be reviewing the Vaio UX for Popular Mechanics at some point. I did see a UX at the Consumer Electronics Show and it looked pretty cool. Not really a laptop-replacement for all purposes, but a terrific go-anywhere blogging tool from all appearances. I’ll see if it lives up to appearances.
